I feel like my art is a pretty good representation of who I am as an artist; huge love for animals, a vivid imagination yet still grounded by reality, and an inbuilt pull to be slightly different 👩🎤💃💖✨

First time diving into abstract and playing with oil pastels, oil paint and metallics, and of course I had a lot of fun framing these too 😌
If you’ve ever wanted to own an Alykat original, these Untitled No. 1 & No. 2 are available and currently on show at @thelanewaygallery for one more week as Fairy Floss Fantasy winds down.
You can view and purchase them online via the Laneway Gallery website, or come see them in person while they’re still on the walls 🖼️
We’re wrapping FFF up on May 2 with a decent send-off — themed drinks, live music with DJ Mirchiya (@mirchiya.jade.naidu ), discounted artworks, and a secondhand clothing rack of colourful Alykat outfits past to rummage through. Come celebrate with us 💖
Framing procrastination: When you’ve got a tonne of Tafe marking to get through and all the sudden you need to frame everything 🫣🙋♀️🤪
All these little gems are on their way to @kaleidoscopecoffs 💕

Five years ago, when we were Alykat Gallery, the original Fairy Floss Fantasy group exhibition was interrupted by our very first lockdown in Coffs.
Weeks later, as the town slowly reopened, I hosted multiple mini openings of just 8 people at a time. Every session sold out and brought people together through colour, themed cocktails, goodie bags, and unapologetic fun 💖
Now, five years on and one year into The Laneway Gallery, Fairy Floss Fantasy returns 💓
Still just as quirky, dreamy, and a little bit strange, with pinks, peach and pastels leading the way, the gallery will once again become a hub of positive inspiration.
Save the date: Saturday 28 March for a Laneway birthday celebration you won’t want to miss 💅👛👩🎤🍿🍰🎨
If you feel your artwork fits the curated aesthetic, you can find the entry form via the link in bio ✨

Anyone noticed the new festival poster design for @nambuccavalleyopenstreets looks a little Alykat this year? Well, you’d be right!! 👏😻🚦
It’s been an adventure working with lovely @joelatgoodcrew and the gorgeous photos captured from last year’s event by @andthetreesphotography to create this mammoth digital collage, launching their next free festival taking over the streets of Macksville NSW on February 14.
Scroll through the close up snippets to see the detail in bringing all of the images together and added illustrations highlighting the river meets the sea concept with local totems and animals of the area playfully interacting.
It’s a huge family fun day out with local band stages and activities, markets and games, and a spectacular fireworks display to finish up your Valentine’s Day! Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the mid north coast region 🫶
Hello friends!! I’m starting the year off with a couple of fun surprise collage workshops invited by the fine folks at @yam.coffs 🙌
There’s an all ages (12+) contemporary collage session AND a cheeky collage & cocktails 18+ evening session – so excited for this! Inspired by the brilliant current exhibition CREATION by @deborahkellyartist ✂️
I’ll also be making a workshop appearance at YAM’s free “Up Late” night at the gallery with live performances by current exhibiting artist Hossei @heelingfeeling , music by @dj_jemka , @emerald_island_distillery bar, and @onetwofive.pizza
Links to more info and to purchase your workshop tickets are in my bio, hope to see you there 💃✂️🍸
I kinda love how ugly it is 😹 Is that a thing??
I’ll be in @thelanewaygallery this Saturday setting up an Alykat & Friends summer exhibition with some different stuff like this 😻
I’ll have Nick my framer dropping off another batch of recycled timber frames and I have some really impressive large, quirky, ornate Alykat framed goodies I’ll be hanging on the wall alongside some colourful and whacky other artists.
#alykatcreative #coffscoastnsw #vintageframes #australianart
I love working with the ever-kind and talented Nick Peacock, who handmakes these beautiful frames from reclaimed Coffs Coast hardwood 😍
We’ve kept them super affordable, and they pair perfectly with Alykat prints. I have a small batch in stock at @thelanewaygallery and they make gorgeous Chrissy gifts or an easy add-on to any artwork or photo.
Prices:
A5 — $30
A4 — $40
A3 — $55

Looking forward to setting up a market stall alongside some wholesome food, tunes and views at @archive.midnorthcoast ’s Spring Fling at Valla Hall in a couple of weeks.
I’ll have market sales and bundles ready for Christmas gifting and spoiling, and I love the chill arvo/early evening feels too 😌
Byo drinks & picnic rug and settle in for the afternoon. Hope you can make it for a little visit 💖
