Artwork Description

Murray Falls is a popular North Queensland Waterhole South of Cairns. I took my family there when they were younger. When I see this drawing I am reminded of those times and the pen and ink images instantly become real memories with sound and smell and colour. If you have been there you will know the same memories. Maybe it will remind you of a favourite waterhole near you, and invoke your own memories

Artist Bio

Returning to drawing after a long famine. In a time when ticket writing was a trade, and signs were painted by hand in warehouses full of creative genius. I trained as a sign-writer. Combining brush control, lettering skills and graphic art we created some amazing works. The advent of computers killed off the collaborative brilliance and I found myself in an artistic wilderness. Somehow, I found myself in construction and ended up working as a carpenter for the next stage of my life. Now that circumstances allow I am back doing what destiny had designed for me all along. I reverted immediately to the style I grew up with, comic books and cartoons, but now I have stories to go with the pictures. My art is raw, unrefined and unpopular, which is why I think you will like it.
