Illustrator
Ever since I can recall, there has always been a deep fascination for and great love of colour, nature and art. My decision to pursue a life in art, came after experiencing certain inspirational and uplifting feelings, which were evoked simply by gazing upon and contemplating various paintings created by Masters of long ago.
Mostly self taught as an artist, I had worked as a graphic artist and art director in the 1970’s and 1980’s for advertising agencies: George Pattersons, Leo Burnett, D’arcy McManus Masius and Fortune Advertising. Leaving advertising in the mid 80’s, I began freelancing full time as an artist, illustrating for various children’s books and magazines, including painting a 30ftx6ft (10mx2m) mural for a major opal company, Opal Field Gems, in Adelaide.
My work was entered in various exhibitions locally and nationally, which included a nationwide touring exhibition. The style of work, incorporates realism through to impressionist and abstract.
