painter and sketcher, is best known as a mural artist, e.g. Australia House, London; Parramatta City Council; Kingsford Smith International Airport. In 2001 he issued two portfolios of 10 drawings done over a lifetime of his travels in Australia and abroad, preparatory sketches for his murals and sheer delight in the human figure. Artarmon Galleries’ invitation to register interest in the portfolios was illustrated with Bon appétit , a slightly satirical sketch of a rich fat woman taking a large mouthful.
