Published!


I was recently interviewed by really friendly kiwi bloke, Ricky French the other week, and it appears that he wasn't just visiting me for the free biscuits and to laugh at my paintings. He's written an article that's appeared in the the esteemed art magazine Trouble.
(here's the article)

There might also be a feature article on me in the Big Issue magazine too... so keep you eyes peeled for that one.

All this is in aid of the Itchiball Prize opening night party, to be held on Tuesday 21 September at Chapel Off Chapel, 12 Chapel Street, Prahran, 6.30 – 8.30pm. Gold coin entry.

See ya there!

The 2010 Itchiball Prize Campaign


While giving serious contemplation to the idea of quitting the painting game at the top after winning in 2009, I've been surfing a fresh wave of creativity inspiration since the recent announcements of the Archibald and Wynne Prizes to Sam Leach. Can you tell?

Australia's Worst Artist 2009!

Welcome to my painting blog.

I have a photography blog, but I'm actually quite a decent photographer, so I didn't want to confuse things by adding my paintings in with my photos... because... apparently...

I am Australia's Worst Artist! as reported in the mainstream media.

Why Do We Need A Porpoise In Life (2009)

My awesome painting skills were finally recognised at long last!

Last year I was awarded the prestigious 2009 Itchiball Prize by the Museum of Particularly Bad Art, with this painting.

I am awaiting offers for sponsorship and endorsement deals...


This year I plan to win again.

I hope to have an exhibition this year featuring new works from yours truly, Ben Butcher, Australia's Worst Artist!
