A giant golden bee sitting on top of a building in Melbourne. I don’t know why. But it looks good against the blue sky. Photograph taken on Nikon D60.
Scarebear logo
I decided to create a brand for my main website that reflected my rough around the edges approach to all-things guitar. I’m not an expert and I’m not perfect. The logo needed to reflect that. My handle Scarebear—which has been a nickname of mine for over 20 years—also implies something that is primal. To date this logo has been applied—in varying formats—to my website, plectrums and business cards.

Keys to Success book
I worked with Giuseppe Sorbello in designing and printing his book on vocal training for the performing arts after I had designed and developed his website. Giuseppe had written this book over many years and hand drawn the images that ended up inside the book. Giuseppe had an idea for the front cover which included somehow incorporating music into the title itself.
It was a delight to work on this project and see it go on to become available through university bookstores.

Mater Adult Hospital refurbishment invitation
While designing for Mater I created this invitation design for one of the hospital’s refurbishment launches. The design needed to appear modern while recognising the blend of old and new with the hospital’s refurbishment and history.

Waterfall in sunlight
I took this photograph in the middle of the day—making the slower exposure trickier to manage—while still managing to capture an appropriate amount of water movement.
The photograph was taken on my film SLR—believed to have been a Canon AE-1—on a tripod in the Nerima Gardens in Ipswich, Queensland, Australia.
Mater Mothers’ Hospitals billboard
While designing for Mater, I created the billboard that announced the development of the new building that was being constructed to house both Mater Mothers’ Hospital and Mater Mothers’ Private Hospital (now Mater Mothers’ Private Brisbane). The billboard design announced that Mater was expecting a new building (a term often associated with mothers who are expecting a child).
