About me: I’m a graphic designer and photographer, in my spare time I like to jam on my Fender telecaster and try to write songs.

I love portraiture and documentary photography. I keep telling myself I will have time to work on more personal art projects one day. Currently I’m working on a series of portraits for the We Make Stuff Good crew, which is coming soon, I promise Krystal!

The documentation of Melbourne street art – in particular Sketch City and Don’t Ban the Can – are a continuous and inspiring projects.  I am also starting to shoot portraits for bands and personalities. Keep a look out for Bewilderbeast, and those crazy graph kids Juzzo and Spud Roc.

Previous group exhibitions are ‘Fort Harts Project Blue’ and last years ‘No Foliage’ exhibition at E55. My main project for this year is a solo exhibition of my street art documentary work.  Next year I hope to head over to South and Central America for a working holiday, it is my dream to get some funding to do a documentary on Permicultre in Cuba.
