These are a selection of drawings that have formed intuitively. Each materialise from little (or ideally no) pre-conceived thought but are still bound by a context, be it a portrait, emotion or memory.

This is a selection of illustrations made observing surroundings, often in cafes, aiming to capture the integrity and energy of the moment.

A selection of pages from my sketchbooks. For more, please visit my frequently updated tumblr or flickr

Video of First Sketch



Recently, I went to Brisbane's Gallery of Modern Art to check out the wonderful Matisse exhibition. Included is a drawing room where people are encouraged to have a go sketching a similar scene to what Matisse would have viewed. As you may notice, I got a little carried away...

These are just a few that I did on the drawing tablets available. Click the links below each image to see the video of each drawing's creation. The first one I did, I was totally in the Matisse zone, but clearly not sure how to use the digital drawing tablet.....
