Welcome to my little Art Gallery.

Ever since I can remember I've always loved art. As a young child I'd always be drawing and painting. A careers advisor in high school said I'd be a good commercial artist, that's what they called them in those days. So when I finished high school I enrolled at the National Art School in East Sydney. About the same time I started learning how to play guitar. When Hush turned fully professional I had to put my art career on hold to focus on Hush's success. After seven years of touring and recording the band split up.

I took a break from the music industry and went back to art school to study graphic design. I topped the course and got offered a job in advertising as a designer / art director. After a few years working in advertising and marketing agencies I decided to work for myself which enabled me to take up playing music again. However I never lost touch with the fine arts and I continue to draw and paint. I guess I'm living my dream now, being able to enjoy and indulge professionally in both creative fields that I'm passionate about. All artwork displayed here is for sale.

Wayne loves his print of my Coogee painting and he's having it framed ! And Brian Lovell from Sydney was really happy with his purchase of one of my Coogee Beach canvas prints.
