“I’m Not Afraid Of Heights, I’m Afraid Of Falling” - 2026
End Credits, a group exhibition at inspired by film and music in film.

If we’ve had a conversation about movies in the last year, I’ve definitely rambled about “Paris, Texas” to you and told you how badly you need to see it.

This painting is a still from the movie, where I’ve replaced the billboard with my recurring pelican character.

By placing my own image into the scene, I wanted to recreate the feeling of a piece of art, music or film suddenly becoming a massive part of your personality and identity once you become obsessed with it.

It happens to me a lot, where I see a movie like this one, and suddenly it’s all I can talk or think about. It becomes a part of me and I somehow become a part of it. I love it when it happens, so I become insufferable and try to force the movie, music or art onto my friends that I think it could happen to as well.

End Credits opens tonight at Loved Ones Gallery in Collingwood. I hope you can get down and see the show in person, I wish I could!

An exhibition inspired my film and music in film. All of my obsessions combined.

I’m stoked to be a part of it!

Thanks for having me again

HALLAPALOOZA gig poster for .midnorthcoast.

It’s been a minute in between gig posters, so it was fun to dive in again!

It’s always fun to work back and forth with Sara on a brief like this.

Music, dogs running the pizza oven, Wagtail’s having a pizza picnic, banjo’s with chicken legs, walking harmonicas, folk gumnut people, ghosts of pizzas, a psychedelic hall…

All so much fun to draw. How many more times can I say the word fun? Fun fun fun fun!

Make sure you go to this great looking festival at Valla Hall!

Here’s my piece for the upcoming For The Deckade show with . I’m glad to bring my neighbours chickens to another group show in Melbourne!

The show opens this week with an insane lineup of artists, all painting on skateboard decks and I’m stoked to be a part of it.

“Chicken Cooperation” 2026
Oil on Canvas

This piece was made for “Thanks In Advance” group show at in Collingwood which opens tonight!

In our street we have two separate houses that sell eggs from esky’s out the front of their house. Just drop your money in the tin and take some eggs. I love it! We drive past this coop every day and these chickens look like they’re living their best lives.

One of our neighbours was nice enough to let Anne and I come in and hang with her chickens and do a little photoshoot to get my reference photos. Swipe across to enjoy some of the highlights of the shoot.

This piece is a nod and a thanks to the honesty system and community vibes that come with simple things like buying eggs from your neighbours chickens.

Come along to the opening tonight if you’re in Melbourne!

This painting continues my latest themes of the power of objects and animals and the emotion weight we place on them.

I actually had this idea for my Birds, Deaths & Marriages show at but I decided to stick to smaller works.

This painting is filled with objects that all played a part around the time of my mum passing, so it’s an emotionally jam packed painting for me and maybe I wasn’t ready to deal with it when I was having my Melbourne show. Painting it over the past couple of months, I found it to be a nice way to revisit that time and process more of my feelings and really notice how these objects can still offer themselves as a portal to that wild time.

The centrepiece is myself holding a painting of a glossy black cockatoo, being my very literal way of explaining the emotional weight that bird carries with the memory of mum.

The composition of this piece is inspired by one of my favourite Magritte paintings.

I’m proud to have this piece hanging in the for Northern Exposure, right next to !

Make sure you check it out if you’re in the area!

Also enjoy the wholesome photo of and having a hug in front of my work. The hug has nothing to do with my work, but it was a nice coincidence haha.

This character explores a whole world of possibilities, mostly avoiding the one thing it was born to do: swim.

It’s trying everything it can think of before eventually realising where it’s meant to be and finally taking the plunge. I’m sure it had some great experiences along the way though!
