This Pete

Don't look at the carpet, I've drawn something awful on it..

About Me

This Pete is a motion graphics designer + rather innactive musician based in Redfern.

His origins are clouded in mystery but it is generally agreed upon that he was raised as the son of pig farmers in the central west of NSW. After a generally genial childhood he was sent to a boarding school that defied expectations born unto the world by authors such as Enid Blyton + JK Rowling. He did however survive this ordeal & upon following the bright lights on the horizon to the city of Sydney, discovered that he was not a lone, handsome + troubled artistic genius, but one of many. He would even suggest that his particular genius perhaps falls in the lower middle of the bell curve of this most prestiged demographic. Nonetheless he lives a happy & successful life and would one day enjoy having more on his myspace page than this awful biography.

And one day there shall be, I swear it.
