Midnight Oil Blue Sky Mining Cassette

One stinking hot Australian summer in the 90’s, we packed up the old Ford Laser and embarked on a family holiday to Byron Bay. On a particularly hot day we headed to the beach for some relief. While our skin burned, unbeknownst to us, this Midnight Oil cassette was cooking on the dash. We found this warped mess of a cassette when when we got back to the car.

This original piece took artist Dean Spinks over 60 hours to draw in his unique photorealistic style using Copic markers on Strathmore Bristol paper.

Artwork is unframed and will be shipped in a tube.

Obsessed with the symmetry and expression of the human face, Dean works almost exclusively in portraits. Using black ink markers, his unique crosshatching style allows for high contrast and great detail, creating dramatic, impactful works of art.
