These scratchy retro images have been adopted by wineries, zoo’s, radio stations and fish mongers from around the globe. He toils by lamplight in a warehouse studio in Surry Hills, Sydney surrounded by Pez dispensers, Chinese masks and several other odd illustrators.
His client list includes: The New York Times, TIME Pacific, San Francisco Chronicle, Plansponsor, ACP Magazines, LA Times, DDB Advertising, MMB Advertising, Fenton Stephens Advertising, Freeform Advertising, Inside Sport, Lion Nathan, ABC Radio, Taronga Zoo, Readers Digest, News Magazines, The Sydney Morning Herald, Computer World, Gardening Australia, Yalumba Wines, Dexion, Tufts College, Steggles, Lilydale, Qantas, CSR Sugar and Market City Shopping Centre.
His work has been acknowledged by Communication Arts, Luerzers Archive, The Creative Annual, The Hotshop Awards, The Society of Illustrators New York, The 3x3 Annual and American Illustration.
