Part of a suite of work I did for the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra with @influxcreative (swipe to see a tiny sample inside pages). It has been awesome working on these (and lots of other materials) for the ASO for the past few years, all-consuming but awesome! . . Currently working on the marketing material for the History Festival, which is keeping me busy. Lots of typesetting, but I also do love that side of design, having to be perfect and making sure everything is 👌🏻 . . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #contemporaryart #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #geometric #geo #australianart #artist #designer #graphicdesigner #southaustralia

After months of working in the sunroom I finally have a corner of a studio, so good to have my own space that I can leave setup without the kids getting into everything. Also great to be in the same studio as hubs @influxcreative again, will make it a lot easier as we collaborate on so much design work together #studio #wip #workinprogress #artstudio #designstudio #multidisciplinary . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #patterndesign #surfacedesign #studio #homeoffice

Sneaky snippet of one of the new paintings I’m working on ➖going slowly but surely with these ones. It’s a small goal but I was hoping to complete 4 largish paintings by End of Feb, I don’t think I’m going to finish the forth but I’m still happy to be pushing myself to #carveouttimeforart on top of my graphic design work. It’s a busy time and I’ll probably have to stop painting altogether in March - hopefully I can make the time if only if it’s a few minute a day for a sketchy sketch. #wip #workinprpgress . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #ihavethisthingwithpink

#throwbackthursday #tbt here's a throwback to this art print 'geo' from 2014. It was part of my first SALA festival exhibition and was the first 'leap' into art after working in design for a long time. I am still a designer and spend much of my working hours on client work, I do my art at nights, early mornings and weekends whenever I can carve out the time. So far this year I have been working slowly but surely on a series of paintings that I will be able to release in one hit as a collection. I have been holding 'my cards' closely for a few reasons, but I am glad to be sharing some snippets with you soon. There may be some visual references that are reminiscent of this work so thought it apt to share a #throwback . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #wip #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #artprint #gicleeprint #homedecor #homedecordesign

Day 6, Jan 21 #holidaysketch this ones unfinished but you get the idea! I’ve been a bit sea sick at night so sketching has been going slow. I do have a few more to upload in a sec... I have wifi for a few minutes and it’s my last chance before I’m on route back through the deep blue sea to Sydney . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #patterndesign #patternobserver #monochrome #mono
