So yeah, I have a little show of small, affordable paintings coming up. If you’re based in Melbourne, then come along! 
Little BitsOpening night: Friday 9th of March, 6-9pm and the show will run for approximately 5 weeks, though that is yet to be confirmed for certain. Where:  Cafe Lua, 169 Elgin St, Cartlton VIC
About: 
Ok, so here’s the deal.
I am currently working on a performance for the Melbourne Fringe Festival with the very talented Wes Gardner and Lucas Heil (my glorious collaborators from sighfive.com) So far, the show looks like it will be delightfully demented, hilarious and deeply disturbing. It should be good - if by “good” you mean “creepy” and by “creepy” you mean “I feel violated.” I will be playing the part of a monster with approximately seven boobs and a giant phallus.
However, producing such an affront to the senses is going to be an expensive venture and after a year of struggling with repetitive strain injury in both my hands and the subsequent unemployment, I’m kind of in need of some moolah to kick this venture into gear.
So when I was offered a show at the most excellent Café Lua, I seized the opportunity and then instantly thought to myself “Oh shit! I only have just over a month to make art for this” then “Oh shit my hands are still in pain most days!” then “Oh shit, I have no money for art supplies!” I proceeded to raid my studio and came across a small stockpile of little canvases in various sizes… jackpot!
I am now busy painting my proverbial buttocks off in my spare time/when my hands allow it and am really enjoying myself. These little paintings are fun, colourful and sometimes moronic little fragments flowing directly from my brain, through my sore hands, my dilapidated paintbrush and onto various little canvases. But here’s the best bit – they’re all for sale and they’re all dirt cheap! Hell, they’re cheaper than dirt! These paintings are poo cheap!
Prices will start at as little as $20 and go no higher than $200. If you have a desire to put often brightly coloured, weird original artworks on your wall or to gift them to people you hate, then this is your big chance to do it at a price that you simply can’t refuse! And think of the incredible good you’d be doing by helping out a struggling artist! You’ll be a true Australian hero! WOW!
So come along to the opening night, have a drink and mingle amongst a most excellent group of people. There will be a raffle, a performance or two including Modular Synthesizer Experiments by the most excellent CV Slime 800 and a game of “Pass the Parcel” which will blow your mother loving socks off! A raffle! CV Slime 800! Pass the Parcel! How can you refuse?! 
Most importantly… this art is ‘poo cheap’ to miss!

HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS
YOU CAN GO BUY JESSIE’S ART
HOW FUCKING LUCKY ARE YOU THAT THIS IS A THING YOU CAN DO
