Artwork Description

Linocut print of a bike against a fence.

I took a photograph of this bike in Hepburn Springs‚ Victoria‚ Australia. I really loved the light coming through the fences and the spokes of the bike. I then worked from the photo to create a hand carved linocut print. It was quite a difficult carving with all the spokes and shape of the bike.

Limited edition of 50 hand signed prints.

Artist Bio

Hand-carved & printed, limited editions. Where graphic lines meet classic craft.

I’m a Melbourne-based illustrator and printmaker with 25 years of experience. After years in agencies, I founded my studio in 2009 to bridge technical precision with the grit of the handmade. I think of my practice as an off-site art department where graphic lines meet classic craft.

My heart is in linocut printing—a slow, meditative craft. It requires hours of hand-carving a block before ink ever touches paper. Because of this process, every print is a unique entity with its own character. My style is a conversation between graphic art and relief printing, shaped by the Australian landscape and the legacy of Margaret Preston and the Japanese Sōsaku-hanga movement.

When I’m not at the carving bench, I’m usually recording music or heading out on a road trip. I’m a professional member of Illustrators Australia and always open to new collaborations and commissions.
