Alright alright alright! Wew! Without further ado, here is my collection of final works for the TASMANAi project with @tasmania, along with the initial piece. Been a while since the kick-off, so to reiterate, prompts were sent in to a selection of very talented Tasmanian artists, whom I was very fortunate to be among. Thousands of people sent them in, we had around 350 or so to choose from, and selected entries won original artworks! No AI being used in the production ☺️👌 I inevitably chose a bunch of prompts focussed on Tasmanian fauna, up to all sorts of shenanigans/getting back at us pesky humans. Such fun putting these pieces together, big thanks to @tasmania getting me involved in the project and to @bmf_australia for the excellent campaign. Congrats to all the winners! Hopefully you enjoy my interpretations of your prompts ✌️😅 1. Seagulls go into battle for a chip in Hobart 2. A scaled, writhing creature emerging from the murky depths of the Cataract Gorge in Launceston 3. A turbo chook gleefully rides a penny farthing on The Nut 4. Getting swallowed by a giant Oyster along the larapuna / Bay of Fires area 5. A currawong hiking the Overland track, with tiny humans trying to steal its lunch at Cradle Mountain 6. A giant slimy salamander in the streets of Salamanca #tasmania #tasmanai #illustration #fauna

After the success of the Ducks of Tasmania booklet we’ve decided to put together a little extra something special… Pre-orders are now open for our 2025 Ducks of Tasmania Wall Calendar! There will be a limited run of these, with pre-orders wrapping up around mid-June and deliveries going out August/September. Simply head over to the pre-order site through the link below, fill in a few details, and we’ll be back in touch in August for payment and deliveries. $35 each, with additional costs for postage if requested.

We have such a wealth of artistic talent here in Tasmania. It’s a pretty gosh darn inspiring place. Myself and a bunch of other amazing artists have teamed up with Discover @tasmania to take the fight to the robots. Introducing TASMANAi, real art, made by real Tasmanians. Head over to the website, submit a rad and creative prompt, and you might just receive an artwork based on it by yours truly or one of the other artists in the mail! http://discovertasmania.com.au/tasmanai #tasmanai #tasmania #australia #art #illustration #artists #painting

Very proud day on Tuesday. A most excellent booklet that I was fortunate enough to be brought on as the illustrator for, “Ducks of Tasmania”, was finally launched. The booklet was excellently designed by Poco People, created in hand by the Pacific Black Duck Conservation Group, Derwent Estuary Program and BirdLife Tasmania along with the help of several local councils. The book aims to help Tasmanians identify their native (and some not so native… ) ducks, providing a handy resource of info about the best places to find, and the best ways to care for our native ducks. You can pick it up from most greater Hobart councils and various other outlets as they make their way out into the wild. As the mighty ducks would say, ‘Quack! Quack! Quack!’. *Many of our native ducks don’t actually quack 🤯 @pacific_black_duck @derwentestuaryprogram @birdlifetas
