Artwork Description

Drawing on paper

Signed on the front.

Prior to the start of the 1888 season, The St. Kilda club merged with neighbouring Prahran. St. Kilda faired best in the union by retaining its name, colours and home ground. The only remaining remnant of the Prahran club was the blue knickerbockers worn by the players.

By researching my subject thoroughly, I discover that which is often unclear or obscured in the old photographs and reunite the people, structures and background to their rightful hues.
The full colour rendering of the scene breathes life into the historical black & white record of the football past and allows the contemporary viewer the opportunity to witness the moment as it appeared to those who were there.

The original artwork is currently unframed,
The paper is mounted on a thick card backing.

Richmond Football Club great, Jack Dyer, is given a rousing reception by Fitzroy fans as he leads his Tigers onto the Brunswick Street Oval in 1946. My hand drawn artwork adds colour to the black and white record of the past. Breathing life into the black and white history of Australian rules football with my full colour hand drawn depictions of the game's early years. Collingwood's first VFL premiership captain stands proud on the club's home ground - Victoria Park. Carlton and Fitzroy do battle in front of a capacity crowd at the MCG in the 1904 VFL Grand Final. My full colour artwork presents the scene just as it would have appeared to those who were there.
