Tony
works in a meticulous, hard-edge, super-realist
style. He often blends humour and whimsy into his
painting subjects. Frequently
the paintings are inspired by puns and wordplay,
reflecting his love of language. Being a cheeky
bugger, he also likes to
engage a little Trompe L'oeil trickery. His
fascination with nature has also resulted in many fine wildlife paintings.
Tony has had exhibitions of his paintings
in Brisbane, Sydney,
Adelaide and Melbourne, and he has participated in
various group exhibitions throughout Australia. He has won various
prizes and sold works to buyers from all
over the world.
Tony has performed commission work for private and
corporate clients, as well as picture book illustration and book jackets for
a variety of publishers.
