He later worked with all the major record labels and many leading Australian bands, art directing CD covers and tour art and was nominated for four ARIA Awards for best Album Cover Artwork. He has worked more recently in web design for a variety of new media companies.

“What I emphasize is that the computer is merely a tool, like a technical pen. If you don’t have a concept to start with you are just wasting your time, or worse still, creating visual pollution if it makes it to the printer.”

“I suppose I am trying to achieve the designer’s equivalent of living for the moment.”
