Should you put out physical music in 2025 - Rhath podcast 93
How do you legitimise your art in the eyes of others and, far more importantly, in your own eyes? How do you communicate to people that you’re taking your art seriously?

Kelsey Jean & The Bad Health (which I happen to be in, of course) has a new single out today!
I also got to do the artwork, which I'm bloody stoked with. Super bold, and fish.
Check it out.

Consume art with intention & the downfall of Spotify
youtu.be/g5ZStvE8gDY
Joined the bandwagon in ditching Spotify because the CEO is a scumbag, which was easy, I couldn’t stand the user experience… but is the decay another sign towards the ‘dead’ internet (as we know it)?

G'day, new podcast episode out - Our Aesthetic 'Rules'
youtu.be/ZWug1Zfn1C0
Is the advice you’re giving (and I’m giving) ‘rules’ or simply your aesthetics? Been thinking on the mental gymnastics we all can do when rationalising our creative choices.

New Podcast Episode Out Now! - How much should you talk about your creativity?
How does what we share online and in conversation with people about our creativity affect our practice or mental space? Does it guilt you into doing more, or paralyse you?
#melbourne #podcast
New podcast out: Should you treat your art like a job?
youtu.be/c4gUntprzoQ
Are you creating through passion & romance, or is your rigid structure to creativity sucking all the life out of your art?
Musing on romanticising other's creative processes, finding routine, and building your workshop.
New Podcast episode out: Are you taking opportunities or just people pleasing?
youtu.be/z6UEB8rE4v0
You need to be careful with your time, but you also never know what’s coming next and who’s checking out your work.

New Podcast episode out: Some pitfalls of time-blocking creativity
Like many, I get on a 'productivity kick' too often, and I struggle to let myself rest. Just some musings on that along with some thoughts on the book 'The Wall' by Marlen Haushofer.

Put out a new creative journal/podcast: Are you attracting the right people to your art?
youtu.be/mAcqrugjy_M
What's your hook/entry point/draw to your art, and what does it say about the work itself? And how many times have you tried to get into a movie/game/band before it clicks?
#art #creative

New podcast out, talking about emergent storytelling & detail in your art. How to find artistic depth through time and work, rather than having 'something to say' at the start.

New podcast ep: 82 Cringe Reels Music & the Artistic Social Contract
youtu.be/z5SAhN763L8
You make a social contract with every piece of art you interact with/create. Are you holding up your end of the bargain?
And what’s happening with all the cringe on music reels?
#cringe #creativepodcast
New podcast episode up:
Do you need ambition as an artist?
Do you need ambition to make ‘something of yourself’? Do you need to ‘make something of yourself’? What’s the difference between drive and ambition as an artist?

Cover I made recently for Kelsey Jean & The Bad Health single - I'm Not Listening.
Sort of going for a digital linocut style. Got some alts ready for future singles as well!
So much fun as always making music covers.

New podcast episode: Scrapbooking in the Digital Age
Are you actively consuming art and media or passively? The mentalities of old-school scrapbooking could help.
Also, what's all this about a “blood book”?

I drew up a new version of the veiled lady for 50FIFTY based on the single cover that I made recently for them. This time, for some merch! Stoked to see these printed up; they look sick!

My mum trusted me to design a tattoo for her of the Glastonbury Tor! Had a blast doing this style!
Here's also an alternate design that was too detailed, but I love this shadow-focused style.

Maybe my favorite verse from my latest EP
Crystalized in the bones, split 'em
Brought to their knees, all the big hitters
Back to the ooze, yeah we're looking good
Yeah we're looking gorgeous, man I feel enormous

So gorgeous. Desperately want to take a swig before dying to a cave troll.
That's sick! Nice one

Amazing! The landscape feels really nostalgic to me, like paintings of the Aussie outback I saw as a kid.
So much energy and heat to the piece. Maybe my favourite of yours I've come across so far! Love it
Love your work. Whimsical... and a bit unsettling
Truly horrific and disturbing. I love it
