I am a loving partner, a dedicated father, an ideas man and a creator of things. I live in a small town in the rainforest of Far North Queensland, Australia. My influences stem from a childhood in the 80’s filled with wacky cartoons, video games and comic books . In my teens I was a big fan of Manga animation and skateboarding and later became fascinated by low brow art and hot rods. I lived in Melbourne during the rise of the graffiti movement and was inspired watching the cities walls become filled with my generations artistic expressions. My development as an artist has been unconventional and free flowing, I exhibited in galleries around the world, I worked for corporate clients, I spent time on the sets of films and designed and project managed residential property developments. The best thing about me is that Im really funny, the worst thing about me is that I think Im really funny. Throughout my journey I never lost my passion for illustration and thinking up stories and now I am focused on sharing them with people like you.

I am always happy to discuss collaborating or getting the opportunity to help you with your project. I love monsters, cars, design, characters, film, animation, street art and illustration and given the opportunity I am confident in finding an original and exciting solution to any brief.
