Since the 05/06 Summer edition of the beautifully produced Sunshine Coast magazine,
SALT,
I have been invited to illustrate Bernard Salt articles, and now, the stories of Brisbane writer Benjamin Law.
The stories are always presented to me about a month and half before going to press, and I am given open slather to treat them in any way I choose. Often difficult, but always fun. Invariably, an idea springs to mind on the the first reading, and despite all attempts to improve upon that idea, the initial gut response proves to be the most relevant.
Below is the final proposal for the current edition.

growing up on the Sunshine Coast and trying to make an impression.

And you do such a great job at illustrating for salt Pete. We love having you on board, not to mention the clever contributor illustrations that you drew for our autumn 12 edition.
