I have spent 30 years creating trompe l’oeil (trick of the eye) and anamorphic murals, portraits, commissioned works and 3D pavement art.
A year after leaving RMIT in 1988 I began creating work on the streets of Melbourne, first as a busking chalk artist, then travelling further afield as an invited performer at local and international festivals, in Europe and North America. This was followed by nearly a decade of work painting sets in the theatre, which culminated in the position of Head Painter on the Walking with Dinosaurs arena show. Throughout this period I continued to produce my own work, appearing in festivals and competitions around the world. In the end the dinosaurs had their day, and I moved on to pursue my own professional career.
Relocating to the Central Coast, after 30 years of work in Melbourne has led to a further shift in practice, with greater focus on large, permanent mural work, and developing studio practice built on the accumulated technical expertise of a lifetime, applied to a wide variety of subject matter.
