I recently did some mural restoration on my Markov Lane mural in Carlton, Melbourne, and incorporated the remnant tags in the tree colour.

I’m very excited to announce that my prints will be now represented through the wonderful Port Jackson Press Australia! Check out the website for details of which prints are available or drop in to wonderful gallery on Smith Street Collingwood in Melbourne to check them out in person. I currently have 15 of my prints available, including many of my larger works. Thanks again to everyone’s support!

Mural with Be Free in Fitzroy. The linked concept for this mural all came about kinda sub-consiously and developed as we painted it. The mural is near where the controversial proposed East-West tunnel will exit and we thought this mural celebrated alternative transport! Come on tunnel workers get on board!

Was a privilege to work with the Fitzroy Youth Centre, Collingwood Alternative School and members of the new Cecil Street Community Garden to create this 3D fence mural in Cecil Street, Fitzroy! For anybody who would like to get involved in the garden contact: gorececilgarden@gmail.com

I was so excited to make this steel sculpture “Three in a Tree” for my recent exhibition at Backwoods Gallery, made with the assistance of the one and only Herbz at Rah Creations! The  sculpture is 2 metre diameter and made from 8 mm thick steel. I’m really interested in creating and installing some public artworks like this, if anyone has any leads contact me at civil@antimedia.net. Thanks!
