Just a side glance, a small statue catching the light in my studio window.
Mixed media 
Jazz is Art. Art is Jazz exploration. .

My Dad doing the hard musical yards back in the Ashtons circus touring days around Australia. One man and a microphone. 
I miss hearing that voice.
Cover your nakedness.
I don’t advertise them a lot but some of my designs are available as art wear.
Heres a few to slide through (five in total).
To purchase these designs and many more, I’ve placed a link in my Bio.

The more that music infiltrates my consciousness, the more it ignites and illuminates my desire to create art. What are you listening to lately? What musical soundscape is enriching your own art, writing or mere existence?
‘Jester/Raven’
[Album cover concept on the drawing board]. 2019 has started out much the same as 2018 really. 
It’s just a little less evenly coloured. .

From cleaning oil paint brushes to cleaning up some website images. Hot day in South Oz at the moment so avoiding the studio for a cool(er) spot of editing...

The podcast episode which I illustrated for musician/podcaster Seja Vogel (Regurgitator and Sekiden) is now available online and for download. ‘HearSej’ (pronounced hearsay) features casual and intimate conversations with contemporary musicians and other creatives and has been on my on my growing podcast listening rotation for months. I love it.

I’ll post the podcast link in the comments, but the latest episode finds Seja talking to her guest Jack Ladder (real name Tim Rogers). For my part, I illustrated Jacks show story about a performance at Splendour in the Grass some years ago when the ‘other’ Tim Rogers (of You Am I) asked him to sing ‘Heavy Heart’ with the band. 
Listen to the episode for the humorous recollection of what unfolded :) Each of Seja’s ‘HearSej’ episodes with guests includes a ‘strange musical show’ story and all accompanying illustrations can be found on Instagram @hearsejpodcast or on the HearSej Facebook page.
