Me myself and my art. Top: with “Coolangatta”, c. 97. A very popular print at that time, original later sold to the late Johnny Moon.
Below: painting “Long Shadow Time” on the balcony at Cavanbah Street, 1995. That was the first house I lived in in Byron Bay after five months in a tent at Broken Head caravan park, lighthouse view, a few steps from the ocean, the wonderful caretakers the Donovans looked after my tent when I went up the Gold Coast a couple of days a week to build surfboards.
That painting of Whites Beach was sold to a dentist from the south coast by a gentleman called Jonathan who had a great little gallery called Eclectic Selection behind the Great Northern Hotel where Aldi now stands.
A few limited edition prints of that one were also sold but the problem with the prints is that you end up with a situation where large digital files of your work get sold and transferred along with the business that printed them and who knows what happens after that.
