I went to one of my favourite sketching spots with a friend on the weekend, Camperdown Cemetery. It was established in the mid 1800s and I would say the last time it was used was a century later. The main kind of activity it sees now are dog walkers, people on lunch breaks, history buffs... Continue Reading →
You Am I
I went and saw one of my all-time favourite bands in the whole wide world last night. And it was awesome freakin fun. They're an Aussie band and have been around for a few decades now, and every time I have seen them they put on the best damn rock n roll show ever. Seeing... Continue Reading →
Abu Dhabi Do!
In February I was given the exciting opportunity to travel to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates to play with TaikOz. A huge honour, considering I'm not one of their more dedicated students. It was a unique advenutre and a bit of an insight into the life of a professional touring musician, and it... Continue Reading →
It’s Easy As…
I've created a couple of new pages showcasing all the materials I use as well as my own personal tips on how to handle them or how I use them. I dont have any professional background when I offer this advice, it's garnered from regular use and a lot of jumping in the deep end... Continue Reading →

A capital idea

Anyway, for those who do not know, Canberra was a planned city... Continue Reading →

Do the Bus Stop
As I was starting a brand new sketchbook for my Urban Sketches entries I decided on a theme based around Scenes From A Bus Stop. Most will still be around my local area, but as I take public transport quite regularly I will include other locations around Sydney (and possibly further? who knows...) Anyway, I'm...

Urban Sketches Australia 2012
My theme for my new Urban Sketches book in 2012 is "Scenes from a Bus Stop"
Happy New Year!
I made the most of my precious client-free week inbetween Xmas and NY Day and got a lot of drawing and painting done. How blissful it was! I managed a couple more Urban Sketches, which completes one book. So I will start the new year with a new book. I was thinking of drawing scenes... Continue Reading →
