Sea Change

I've been painting 'cover versions' of album covers since late 2017. If you have a favourite album you'd like to commission, please get in touch (although I have vowed to never paint Sgt Peppers again. That was full on).

Beck's album Sea Change is a classic and a longtime favourite of mine. I've rendered it with expressive brushwork and my typical drips and spatters, trying to achieve a balance of order and chaos (the original photograph and the physicality of the paint). The canvas has a gloss varnish and painted sides, and is ready to hang without needing to be framed.

Painter from the Blue Mountains. I've had paintings in the Sulman Prize 2012‚ Mosman Prize 2012‚ Calleen Art Prize 2013‚ Gallipoli Art Prize 2014 & 2016, Gosford Art Prize 2018 & 2018, the ANL Maritime Art Prize 2018 and the 2019 Hawkesbury Art Prize (winner). In the last nine years I've had a lot of success with abstract paintings, drawing inspiration from the covers of 'Popular Penguin' paperback books, from the classic Monopoly board, Uno cards, and other pop culture icons. The paintings are distorted representations of the subject matter, transformed with thick brushstrokes and often random lettering, retaining the essence of the original but also becoming something new. I have had sell out shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Singapore. My art has been featured in Art Edit magazine, The Grand Designs Australia Sourcebook and the Financial Review. PLEASE NOTE - commissions now closed for 2024. Thank you!
