I mentioned in a previous post I’d been putting together a comic-style piece of Da Vinci’s last supper. This is a version featuring my rowing buddies. Worth noting this isn’t really about religion or any sort of statement. In fact, I stole the idea from an art exhibition held by the artists of the West Australian some…
Satori is one of the reasons I have taken up drawing again. A former colleague, Satori took to drawing flowers – or “doodles” – in her spare time. One she gave me has been on my work desk for a few years now (along with an indoor plant she gave me that stubbornly refuses to die). Anyway,…
The first time I encountered a posca pen was when Digs (Sonia, being her real name) used one to write on her trendy circa-1994 tartan pencil case something about Kurt Cobain, I think during English class. They were also perfect for scribbling graffiti onto the bunsen burner station. For more than 20 years, I’d not given the posca…
Ahhh I took a trip to Jackson’s Art Supplies. It is the go-to for any art enthusiast in WA, although the real pros get their kit online in bulk.

Jarvo is pretty much the real deal: A camping, fishing, hiking one-man war on screen time, a champion of outdoor play, tree climbing, pocket…
This is my attempt to capture two of the most talented people I know in the simplest of forms. Still not wrapped with Teischa’s hair (well, her hair is fine. It’s my ability to replicate it in the minimum number of lines the problem), so it’s kinda a work in progress. Also had a muck around…
Stayed up watching the seige last night.
Another weekend experiment. Learned to use the eye dropper tool. #lifechanging. Can’t believe I didn’t know how to use it before now
This is Spanna, who I promised to use as a muse. We spent a good bit of time doing grainy, hungover selfies during her revent trip to Perth. Haven’t quite figured out how to recreate the graffiti on the wall. Or sort the shading on her left arm. working on it. Take two: I…
