I’m doing a small collection of paintings within the next show called ‘Does this building look like a penis to you or is it just me..?’ Extra points will be awarded to anyone who can place where the building in the painting actually is…. :-)

So I’m now officially obsessed with painting flowers. Although as luck would have it I know absolutely nothing about them! If anyone has any isuggestions about cool species or varieties of (especially native Australian) flowers please do reach out so I can ask you loads of annoying questions 🙂 xx 🙂

Sometimes I feel the need to explain or offer background to my art but in this instance I think it speaks quite, quite clearly for itself…..

This is happening this evening! One of my biggest joys in life is turning people into the concept of thinking creatively and providing a safe space for queers to play with artistic practices and the representation of fabulous, diverse queer bodies.

The more Trump and his like defund Queer artists and try to silence us the more we will thrive and flourish. I can’t wait to see how this turns out….

Every fortnight here in Sydney I run a Queer Sketch Club, the intention of which is to provide a safe space where LGBTQIA+ individuals can explore their creativity, openly without judgement. Also we have lots of fun! This is my best sketch from last week…

Every once in a while I like to paint a Queer Jesus. I know it’ll offend certain people, but anyone who is offended, probably deserves to be offended, so I don’t worry. Please note, golden crown of thorns, the ability to turn water into wine and green glitter eyeshadow models own…. #religiousart

I have a new book coming out at the end of the month and this was the original title I had in mind but I knew I’d never get a scrape of media and I’d be hidden away off bookstore shelves. So I made a big garish glittery gay artwork instead. Maybe I should print it up as teatowels……

I did this series five years ago. I always planned to go in and update/add others as the political and social landscape evolved. Yet 5 years later it’s all exactly still the same nonsense. I suppose sometimes you’ve just got to keep, keep flushing…..
