”It may be true that preoccupation with time has been the downfall of Western Civilization, but it can also be argued that conjecture about eternity is a waste of time!” said Quentin Crisp.

So while I ponder on this o so true statement, there is nothing in this world that beats burning the midnight oil on a drawing or painting you want to get right. Some people think what I do is
a waste of time because I don’t make any money and it’s self indulgent crap.

The old cliche, Art’s for art’s sake is what I have always believed in, unless someone offers me a million dollars for one of my pieces.

I work,live and breath with my young family in a leafy suburb in glorious Melbourne, Victoria.

My hometown offers a wealth of ideas but much of my inspiration
emanates from the dizzy world of pop culture and history.

I’m a generation X so it was natural for me to be sweep away by the cultural tsunami of music, film and television.

I’m by no means an artistic snob, as I find merit in all facets of art, high brow and low brow, from the Sistine Chapel in Rome to graffiti in the alleyways and byways of media-centric modern cities around the world.

I enjoy sharing my work with people around the world since I believe it is my way of communicating my love for humanity and different cultures.
