Since graduating he has continued to make prints and worked as a courtroom, scientific and archaeological illustrator. This last enterprise led to him receiving an Ian Potter Cultural Trust Grant to travel to Egypt in 2002 and assist as an Archeological Illustrator on a dig for the Dakhleh Oasis Project in the western desert of Egypt.
In early 2003 he undertook a residency at the Townhouse Gallery, a contemporary arts space in downtown Cairo. On returning to Australia he was awarded a 2004 Australian Print Workshop Collie Print Trust Emerging Victorian Printmakers Scholarship.
'This was a fantastic opportunity to work through the many ideas and drawings I had gathered while overseas. My work concentrates on a variety of intaglio techniques and explores the figure, often in combination with the landscapes and environments seen on my travels. I was particularly influenced by the stone and mud-brick architecture of Tunisia and Morocco with its fortifications, baroque details and light and airy domes.'
He continues to print on a regular basis at the APW in Fitzroy. His work can also be seen at:
