Basically just for shits and giggles. Thought I might do a few ‘quickies’ of some of the characters I grew up loving to read about as a kid. This one is Judge Death – Judge Anderson. Not in love with it. Might colour it up see fi that might make it pop.
Just a quickie, I have heard back from the organises of the Bo Huff fund raiser. From all accounts the fund raiser was a big success. All the artworks sent over from Kustom Lane Gallery sold and was well received. My best wishes go out to Bo Huff and family, I hope that the fund raiser put a big dint in that coming medical bill.
I also got this awesome photo of Shelby Sparkles from “Car Kulture Deluxe” cover fame, holding up my “Frankies Felons” artwork during the auction. Sweet.

On a side note, I updated the gallery with some recent works a few days back. I hope you dig!
I’ve been invited to join a group show called ‘Creature Feature’ at Monstrosity Gallery in Woolloomooloo, which opened on Friday the 3rd of December. I’m a bit late, I know, but on the upside you can still see it at Monstrosity until the 17th of December. So if your a Sydney sider, you’ve got plenty of time to make it there!
Hi All,
Bo Huff, kustom car building legend, has been diagnosed with cancer. Fighting cancer can obviously be a huge expense and because the US still has a full user pays medical treatment, the kustom car scene state side has banded together to have a charity event to raise money for Bo’s cancer treatment.
As part of the event there with an art auction with all the proceeds going to his treatment. Kustom Lane Gallery has all hooked together to send some art over for the auction, including a brand new piece from myself called ‘Frankies Felons’.
If you live states side and in that area on the 27th of november, go check it out! Its sure to be a big awesome event!
Hi all, Tooo… much…. happening….
Well I thought I should let you all know whats been and about to happen! What you say? How about that the latest issue of Fuel magazine is dropping this sunday!! Why should you care? Well there will be a shin-dig for the launch at Rancho Delux (34 Budd St Collingwood from 2pm) which will have all the Cars and Ladies from the magazine as well as the two artists that appear. It jsut so happens that I’m one of the two artists! I am entirely honoured to be gracing the pages of the awesome Fuel-zine. The other artisit is Pete Elliott, who does some amazing work. So you should (as Turps would say) ‘COME ON DOWN!’, say hi and have an unashamed gawk.
You can all so see a seek preview of the latest Fuel Issue here.
I’m also excited to tell you that I’ll be appearing in a group show called ‘Rollin’ through the 60′s’ at Blue Tile Lounge (95 Smith St, Fitzroy) opening Friday the 22nd. There will be a skate deck and pair of vans shoes vandalised by 10 of Melbourne’s most notorious low-brow artists, and me. Come down have a beer, gas bag and check out some rockin art. I’d better get my arse back to it!

Hi All,
Just a quicky to say I currently have 4 pieces hanging in the window at Villain’s city store. If your in QV, drop by and have a look! They are on the ‘Loft’ level. Access is via the esculators in the centre or just head up the upward sloping lane off Russell St.
While I haven’t posted much for a bit, things have been going crazy here. Some new art is in the gallery for you to check out. One of which was shown in Switzerland for the Drop ’10 show! Below is a pic of it hanging up and one of its position in the gallery (its the one on the far wall just poking out from behind the woman in the back, see it?)
There are a few extra exciting things happening at the moment, one of which is the new Chops ‘n Bobbers show at Kustom Lane Gallery at the start of August. The others are hush hush for the moment, more will be reveled when they come into fruition!
Until then, horns up!
Well I’ve been a busy mofo over the past few months, manic at work and new artworks for some exhibitions have kept me away.
In an attempt to make up for it, I’ve updated the gallery with my new personal works. Three of which were shown at Kustom Lane during march for the ‘California Screaming Down-Under’ Show. The ‘partner’ show to the gasoline galleries ‘California Screaming’ show with is opening in may.
Next time I’ll be back real soon with some process pics, a new pic and news of an overseas showing!
