mad start

things that I like and things that I’ve made. I illustrate, design, print and sometimes take photos.

Early morning studio work before uni.

Back again, trying to find something that’s more enjoyable to scroll than my instagram feed.

Annual Tumblr post. Here’s a photo I took last week down Little Bourke Street. The aspect ratio has been pulled out a bit.

I finally entered the graphic tablet world with a Huion H950P. So far, I'm pretty impressed but it'll be some time before I can build my confidence up when it comes to drawing digitally. I've also recently begun studying animation on a part-time basis.

I went through my archives last night and found some old sketches I did of dinosaurs. Here are some new sketches I did. Enjoy.

Piccadilly Cinemas in North Adelaide, last night.

Took my Dad to the Train Museum. Here are some photos.

The Accumulator is LIVE!

I finally got around to typing up a draft of a short story I wrote some time ago. If you’ve got the time, give it a read. Happy to hear some thoughts on it. There are plenty of grammatical errors to be found. I might add some more photos to it later. Enjoy. Link below.

Started drawing an isometric map of my neighbourhood tonight. Let's see how long this will take to finish (or how long it takes me to get distracted and move onto the next thing). I feel like it's been raining here for days, good for the ground I guess, my brain needs to go outside and breathe though. New tunes on the way 👌

New jam. It's so cold right now.

Trying to find calm in nature (because there is very little left anywhere else).

I’ve been unwell a lot lately, part of me feels as though my body is caving in on itself, but, I know it’s probably just because everything has started to snowball. Dealing with pneumonia is hard, it shakes your body to the core and just when you begin to build your strength up again, the flu hits you along with a monthly cycle of pain and nausea. It’s been a rough couple of weeks but I’ll get there. 

I’m back on Tumblr now because I like how I can feel a certain degree of anonymity here.

Hi Tumblr, it’s been a while. I am still here, laying low, but still here.

Hey there Tumblr, long time no post. Here’s a synth track I made Sunday night before going to work. All instruments played live using a Yamaha PSR-12, Korg Volca Beats, Boss Distortion and a random tremolo pedal I’ve forgotten the name of.
