Cool little video from the 2nd Just Another Group Show opening, shot by Carl Allison. Great work again this year, my favorites being Michael Steele’s two part oil on canvas, Caitlin Rigby’s take on peace and Pierre Lloga’s slick line work. Shout out to Toby and Melika at Just Another Agency for another great addition to Semi-Permanent week, always fun to be involved. Here’s the piece I created for the show.

So at long last the limited edition print of the artwork I created for my band Iron Mind’s LP, Hell Split Wide Open, is available for purchase in my store.
I had the rare chance to do whatever I wanted so I really went for it. It was an ambitious project with countless hours spent both on the concept/content and creating the work. Once again I went to master printer Brian Gilkes at Pharos Edition after he did such a great job on the Sun Has Set Print and I’m not disappointed. The prints look incredible in person, I really couldn’t be happier with the result.
The prints are a 10 color digital process on museum quality Arches cotton rag. Limited to 80, embossed, hand signed and numbered. The paper size measures 1140 mm x 387 mm, the image measures 1000 mm x 247 mm. Like with The Sun Has Set print, once these are gone that’s it.

Should be a great night! Bec Winnel’s amazing work featured in the flyer needs to be seen in person…
Time flies! Today I dropped into the very cool Just Another Agency headquarters to submit my piece for the 2nd Just Another Group Show, opening on the 22nd of this month at 1000 Pound Bend. There’s going to be some incredible work on display, so make sure you get down if you’re in Melbourne. Here’s a look at my finished piece as well as a prelim sketch.
stay tuned for the show flyer!
So a couple of weeks ago Jake Rolfe and I had the opening of our joint show, Twin Navigation. It was a really great night and a great experience for us both, thanks to everyone who came out to the opening and anyone who checked out the work during the following week. Also, big thanks to Toby at Just Another Agency for all her help and Rancho Notorious Gallery for hosting us. Here’s a couple of photos from the night.

I’m currently putting the finishing touches on the work for my joint show with friend and fellow Melbourne artist, Jake Rolfe. Excited to be having the exhibition at Rancho Notorious, a great new Melbourne gallery. The show opens on Friday the 19th of August running until the 29th. If you’re around during that time come check it out! You can read more about it here.
Above is a process video of Jake and myself creating a collaborative piece that will be featured as part of the exhibition, shot by the talented Michael Thomas, who will also have video work on display. Can’t wait to share the new work with everyone, see you then!
