A Gentleman with Superb Sartorial Elegance.

Well we all know I don't grab shots actually in the street that often. However if we had more of this kind of sartorial splendour around town I most certainly would. Thanks Dan for letting me grab this shot yesterday afternoon, Sunday best? Absolutely!

By the way those pants are a fine check and they have played digital havoc when the file size was reduced .. But what can one do!!

The Art of Paint on your Pants and Much Much More!

It looks like expressionist painting has made a come back and it may well be it's best expressed through getting as much on your pants as you land on the canvas! Actually I for one am glad to see hard-won studio clothes worn out to art shows; though if you were at Liverpool St Gallery last night during the early Gallery Lock, a gallery so full of people you can't move; you might want to check and see if it looks like you brushed against a wet painting or two while out.. and if you were at Liverpool St or the crowd was too much you may also have dropped into Stanley Street Gallery which was showing three artists and some powerful sculptural work dealing with the most urgent matters of today and our future.. and the art looks great while prodding your possibly already well informed head; but we must keep on thinking on these things. Perhaps that's why I liked seeing the paint splattered clothes so much last night; it gave me hope of a rebellious youth rising up again. Now that's an encouraging thought to engage with. Scroll down for more shows and opening nights..

Jaybird Freedom Aussie Launch at Boxing Works in Kings Cross..

While I was not so certain upon receiving the invitation, I think the Kings Cross boxing gym, right near the famous Coke sign was a great venue for the Australian launch of the new Jaybird Freedom F5 Cordless/Wireless/Bluetooth ear bud headphones. We got to see some sparing action from guys and gals wearing the F5 Jaybirds, which was nice and lets face it, a lot more interesting than say watching a group of people doing a spin class or yoga or something similar - all of which are great things to do - but not exactly launch event exciting! So the boxing angle really brought home the idea for me that the Jaybird headphones are dedicated sweat-proof, live your life unplugged, wireless SPORTS headphones, and I believe they are a/the leading market brand. And on top of all that founder and CEO Judd Armstrong is a Queenslander (Aussie) and a Griffith Uni (thats QLD) business graduate, nice; and was on-hand to talk about the new model and the future of Jaybird in Australia. Judd has a good slice of the Jaybird team working here in Oz though it is the first time the brand has sold directly here. So here's the pictures, the website link is below. Thanks for a great launch Jaybird & thanks for my set of F5's!

The new Coke sign in Kings Cross Sydney and the Wayside Chapel auction sign. Photo by Kent Johnson.

And speaking of the Coke sign in Kings Cross.. The old sign is being auctioned on Ebay so you can buy a bit of history for yourself and support a great cause; the Wayside Chapel who do great work in the area. And weddings, I photographed a friend being married there last year, but that's another story! So here's the picture, and here's a link to the EBay auction, it stars in about 5 days.. http://stores.ebay.com.au/bidsforgood/cocacola
