25.01.2022 I designed a home office along these lines once, for a client's backyard. Unrealised, a shame.

14.01.2022 Fantastic designs.

14.01.2022 I like designing stairs. They need drama, precision, and need extremely careful detailing. Here are 48 photos of my work. These are all domestic examples. I've designed concrete staircases for public buildings, but timber, steel, and glass are much more fun.

14.01.2022 The version I ended up going with for the tour.

13.01.2022 New rug. Hides the dirt...

12.01.2022 Video for the big screen used in the song 'Do You See What I See?' during the Hunters & Collectors 'Back On The Tools Tour' 2020 Cover plate photos from my global collection. Animation by Nigel Randall.

10.01.2022 Another in the series of series... Tree Trunk Totems: Tasmania. I took these photos while birding in and around the Mt Field National Park, after finishing the Red Hot Summer Tour concerts in Hobart and Launceston in January 2020 (BC).... Tasmanian trees have the most colourful bark in the country. In this format they also represent the easiest and the most difficult to process. Eucalyptus regnans (Mountain Ash or Swamp Gum) is the straightest and tallest flowering plant in the world. Eucalyptus coccifera (Tasmanian Snowgum) is one of the most twisted. Both are featured here.

09.01.2022 I have a new light, from MOMA.

07.01.2022 And people think I'm obsessive.

06.01.2022 It's always a conflict when you hate religion but love churches.

05.01.2022 Various ideas for the 2020 tour.

04.01.2022 I am fascinated by many things. Oil painting restoration is one of them, so I was very happy to be asked to undertake a small project that in some ways is the digital equivalent. The three still life oil paintings by the brilliant Anita Mertzlin were done as individual works, but in triptych form, so the task was to combine the scanned TIF files into a single image for printing. The three individual images are shown here (as JPEG files) and then combined as the unblended cu...t and paste version. The final image is the combined result, created as seamlessly as possible. Some of the joins needed 'digital painting' and matching the brushstrokes was of utmost importance. It is harder than it looks! It was fun to do and a privilege to gain a small insight into the way a great painter works. More of Anita's work can be seen at anitamertzlin.com and in regular solo exhibitions.

03.01.2022 I like going back to places over a long period of time, to see how they're going. Singapore is an interesting case, sometimes criticised for being over-sanitised, but that's not a bad thing when you are coming home from India. I'm always up for rampant colour, either planned or unplanned. In complete contrast, included is a photo of an ArtScience Museum exhibit which has a complete absence of colour and light. It just looks like a black circle here, but please read the gallery note, it was quite a remarkable thing. I've always been a Malevich fan, so it was cool to get the reference.

03.01.2022 New rug for the shed, should hide the dirt.

03.01.2022 Tree Trunk Totems: Otways / K'gari / Victorian High Country. All photos taken in 2019, when freedom of movement was still a thing. I had the idea for using collaged images of tree trunks as totem poles when I was in the Otways, searching for the Pink Robin. The trees were so straight, and so perfectly round in section that it was an easy thing to see. Then on subsequent trips around the country I kept my eye out for suitable trees, to see how the look changed in various habit...ats. These three columns are all from very different places - wet sclerophyll forest in SW Victoria, the largest sand island in the world in Queensland, and the alpine foothills of the Victorian high country around Merrijig and Jamieson. Now I do it wherever I go. Just what I need, another bloody photographic series!

01.01.2022 Full Custom Garage style.

01.01.2022 I once did a design for the exterior wall of a school library using book spines that was never realised. This is wonderful.
