  • Delivered to your door.


    In yesterday’s mail I received an envelope from my local council containing information on their annual clean up service and recycling pick up. To my surprise I was confronted by Wil .B. Wise, a character that I had created for Forte, (the graphics department of Wollongong council). I based this character on a series of short cartoons I watched as a child, called “Le Lin” (I think?). Wil .B. now has about eight 15 second TVCs, (which I animated), ten comic style print adds and is featured in numerous pamphlets, (I supply Forte with the images and their talented graphics team take care of the layout and text).


  • New addition.


    Just added “medical gallery” to my protfolio links.

  • “e for animation” medical image gallery.

    I have done a lot of work for North Wollongong TAFE, (Technical And Further Education), most of which is Flash based animation, but there are also many illustrations. This first group is from a text book entitled “Senior First Aid”….

  • Mucha Lucha Season 3!!


    Finally!. I saw the add last night. Mucha Lucha season 3 is coming to Cartoon Network Australia. It will be playing every Friday in July at 7pm. I worked for Warner Bros L.A. as a character designer on this season, (along with some other very talented people here and here). Below are some of my designs to look out for…..

    The best part was the free tickets so I did not have to pay. Yay! Also saw “Mr and Mrs Smith”, (not the worst movie I saw today). My wife and I enjoyed this movie as we, (like the main characters), are in our 5th year of marriage and we too would like to hunt each other down with machine guns at times.


    Here’s a pic from a recently conceived series idea that I’m currently developing …

    The only thing I’m going to say about this new series is … Old school mini.



    Currently enjoying;


    Happy Japanese Crap!

  • “and on the seventh day, God created Blogging.”


    My main objective for this Blog  is to keep record of / showcase my own work and work I am hired to do. Sure there will be the occasional ‘personal’ and ‘ooo isn’t this cool’ entry, these things can’t be helped. Let’s just see how things turnout…..


    I’ve recently returned from an amazing trip to America, (Los Angeles and New York to be exact). Big thanks to Eddie and Lili for everything! The phrase “The grass is always greener…” comes to mind, but in this case that lush meadow is not too far from ones grasp. A little more work on my behalf and it could be so. Keep posted for info on my cartoon series developments.


    Speaking of which, upon my return to Australia, I received a package from Nickelodeon Australia. Inside was the returned series bibles I had pitched, (“Melody Jucntion” and “Diggerty Boys”). Nick’ Aust’ was not interested at this time.
