The New Studio

Around 2011 I moved into my current studio house. It's a huge old house that has been in the creative community since the original owners moved out in around 1980.

The studio at the end of 2013, hearts, flowers, and a lot of inspiration from a trip to Italy!


Brisbane studio — early years

Eugene Gilfedder spent a lot of time in the studio. He was writing a play about a painter, and then became obsessed with paint!

Brisbane studio — works in progress

Early days, crumbly wallpaper, and old, rotten carpets from 40 years of neglect... Perfect for a studio!


Studio — October 2012

The house already had a fantastic feel when I moved in...
