About Me

As a working artist I've honed my skills as a tattooist since the early 90s and this in turn has helped me develop a diverse style in my painting and allot of other mediums including sculpture and computer animation. When creating i find i draw on all these skills to create something Im happy with.Painting has been something that I've been drawn to since a very early age as far as i can remember I've always been an artist and arts something thing I've always found peace in doing. For me the process is an escape into a weird and wonderfully world where the impossible is possible a place i can feel happy in even on the darkest of days. Staying true to myself I've found that its easy for these feelings to flow though to viewer give them a brief glimpse into my world and on the odd occasion a smile too.. As well as being and artist art/toy collecting is something ive become very passionate about or some might say an obsession. for the past five years ive worked as a full time tattooist in my own studio on Sladen st Cranbourne Australiaif you are interested my artwork i currently show at strychnin gallery Berlin as well at the Villain store Melbourne and black maria gallery California
