I’ve been wanting to post this ‘Elleski Flower Girl’ movie clip for ages, so here it is!
The movie of me was filmed by my friend Olivia before setting up for an art exhibition at Nellie Castan Gallery in Melbourne. Before every opening, we always made sure there was a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers to welcome the gallery visitors. We also tried to compliment the works on display by matching colours, textures and volume.
The stunning artwork behind me is by Annette Bezor. She paints the most beautiful larger than life hyper-colour portraits of women. She is one of my favourite painters and I was lucky enough to model for her!
