It is a well known fact that Kat Macleod is not only one of Melbourne's very best illustrators - she's also one of the loveliest ladies you could ever hope to meet. How one can be so immensely talented, so Melbourne-famous and yet so sweet and modest and entirely unaffected is beyond me. But Kat Mac truly does embody all these star qualities!
Kat is also one of the most collectable commercial illustrators in our talent-filled city - her distinctive painterly ladies are in hot demand, and her original drawings and collages are very hard to come by. This week, however, you have the opportunity to see Kat's beautiful work in person, and if you're lucky (and early!) purchase your very own original piece! Ooh la la.
Entitled Page Girls, the show is based on Kat's illustrations of our favourite weather forecasting fashionista - Michi Girl, and co-incides with Michi's 10th Birthday!
Page Girls is made up of 34 original pieces created from the two Michi Girl books - 'Like I Give a Frock', and 'What on Earth Are You Wearing?'. Kat has also created eight A4 limited edition prints for the show, and one special exhibition release A2 poster!!! (Boys... are you reading? Christmas is not too far away! Perfect GF present, take it from me!)
