Down at Saporium in Sydney one cool spring night a gathering of Food Trucks united to lure in locals for some family friendly food, drinks, dogs, djs, tunes and smirks.
Me and a few of the other Brush Project artists got together to share a bit of the creativity that Birdhat, William Nghiem, Yuri Trechswjakow and Sean Pointing had to offer. With plenty of smiles the gang from Local Artist Division had a blast spraying themselves thanks to the Work-Shop and Brewery Yard Markets for putting it together.
Kid imagination Commission
Stoked to share this fun commission I worked on recently!
I was asked to create an imaginative shadow of a kid full of fun bright and colourful ideas and themes. It was a blast to put together the combination of items, I used to love getting lost in the intricate illustrated kids picture books when I was growing up. I'm stoked to have this piece in the kid's room and hope to inspire and excite his imagination as he is growing up.
Maybe you've got ideas for your own custom artwork like this, have a look at other examples and get in touch.
Here is a time-lapse of the whole thing coming together from start to end.
If this inspired you to think of someone who deserves to receive a custom painting have a look over at my other examples of these personalized gift artworks.

Jack Daniel's Container Collaboration
The team from Jack Daniel's got in touch with me about painting some shipping containers for their Bar that Jack Built on Tour campaign. The concept for the campaign was to create a travelling bar/party that fans of the old No.7 could be a part of. The trucks would drop off the containers in 7 towns between Melbourne and Sydney. Then the locals would come in and supply furniture or labour in return for tix to the event and be a part of the action.
Last year I was involved in the Jack Daniels Birthday -Bar that jack built campaign too. Here's a really thorough link to the process behind it.
And here's my Jack Daniel's Birthday painting.

Posh Cookie Tycoon
I painted this dood live during the third instalment of the Wax Lab open deck sesh.
We thought it would be funny to have a Cookie Monster being caged by the weight of his addiction. The posh snake raises a familiar image of our own corporations in charge.

Gabriel Coffee x Work-Shop Spray day →
Found this old video from last year. The guys from Work-Shop and Gabriel Coffee set up an awesome warehouse spray day. Lots of paint, food, drinks and of course coffee were consumed. It was great to meet so many artists and have a paint with them.
