The Craft of Etching from Etching House by the master etcher Norman Lindsay
Author: Etching House
About the Art of Etching by Norman Lindsay - The art of etching appears to be a lost art today and the public interested in art must have very little knowledge of its technical problems, it may be advisable to explain this as briefly as possible. Norman Lindsay takes a highly-polished copper plate is first cleaned with caustic soda and dilute nitric acid. Norman Lindsay takes a hand grip which is then attached to the copper plate acting as a handle; the plate must not be touched once it is cleaned. more...
Artist finds truth in literary hoax The Sydney Morning Herald, August 21, 2004
Author: Sharon Verghis
The artist Garry Shead has taken out the $20,000 Dobell Prize for Drawing with an imposing homage to one of the country's most infamous literary hoaxes. The subject of the ink on paper diptych Colloquy with John Keats, chosen from a final field of 34 yesterday at the Art Gallery of NSW, was strangely topical, Shead later remarked, given recent events concerning literary fakes. more...

Shedding light on Ern Malley The Sydney Morning Herald, October 28, 2003
Author: Angela Bennie
The poet Ern Malley is alive and kicking hard. For some reason he will not relinquish his hold on the Australian artistic imagination. Ern was born one desultory afternoon in 1944 in the Victoria Barracks in Melbourne and died the same afternoon of Graves; disease aged 25. more...
Shead, and the life of Malley The Age, June 20, 2005
Author: Megan Backhouse
Garry Shead says it was getting dangerous just how much he started identifying with Ern Malley, the 1940s poet who both did, and didn't, exist. Malley's evocative verse might have been penned as a hoax but both the man and his modernist poems have taken on a life of their own. more...
NEWS MAY 2007 JUDIT SHEAD 1949 – 2007
Author: Curtsey of the Family
JUDIT SHEAD was a fine sculptor and artist. Judit Shead was trained in the great European tradition and has works on public display in Australia, her adopted country. Judit is probably best known, however, as the wife and muse of artist Garry Shead. Most of the women in Shead's paintings are, in one way or another, Judit. "Often I start out painting a woman with a completely different face and bigger-bosomed body, but it always ends up looking like Judit," he said in 2001. more...
