Willy's Plum Jam

Plums are one of my favourite fruit, they remind me of time spend in the orchards of Kent as a kid.

I knocked up a batch of homemade plum jam and labels to give as christmas gifts 

so friends can enjoy a dollop of England on their toast.

Lunchbox classic

Half melted Wagon Wheel and warm yoghurts where lunchbox staples!

Its not your finest dark single estate chocolate but they still go down pretty well with a cup of tea.

Love the bold characterful branding, reminds me of a spaghetti western

Yogurt on the go

Interesting format for a yogurt drink.

Reminds me of coffee cups and bubble tea.

Buddha beer

You couldn't get much more character in a glass bottle if you tried. 

Ok, there is heaps of glass in the bottle, the beer is kinda ok 

but Lucky beer's buddha shaped bottle is pretty cool that alone makes it worth buying.

Spray wax?!

I thought this was a joke but my friend of mine swears by it and gave me a can to try.

Unlike regular surf wax, this wax doesn't build up an ugly mess 

on the deck of your bodyboard. It kind of penetrates the pores of the form while leaving the perfect level of grip while being pretty much invisible....awesome stuff!

Kåre is a pretty talented fella and one the nicest people you'll ever meet.

I reckon this yogurt pot's got a bit class to it. 

Nice matt black rounded edge lid with a fresh feeling injection molded pot.

Green fingers

A friend needed a logo for his landscaping business, I was happy to oblige. 

Just kept it clean and simple for standout on the black of the trailer.

The Final Froth

This flyer I created for Maroubra Bodyboarders turned out heaps better than I expected.

I love the zombied look of the evil dead boogie board.

An Australian Institution

The classic milk bar is fast disappearing from the Australian suburbs, which is a shame 

as they are a truly unique piece of Australiana. The Bridge Cafe in Macksville in Northern NSW still retains some of the original elaborate decor that makes these remaining milk bars so special.
