USk Auckland goes large in Avondale...

...printed large that is. A few months back we sketched in Avondale as guests of the Whau Arts Festival. Well thanks to Whau the People our sketches have now been enlarged substantially, mounted and are on display in the old 3Guys site. They look surprisingly good enlarged! 

Here are a selection of them below (mine are on the grey paper) and they'll be on display until the end of December. Check them out if you're in the area, they're in a car park so you can even drive around them....

Quite a few sketches feature 'Dale' the Avondale spider sculpture. Many Avondale spiders were shipped to Hollywood to become stars of the movie Arachnophobia and are actually Australian Huntsman spiders that first arrived arrived here in the 20's on railway sleepers.
