DOWN to BUSINESS

• What style of art do you create & where did it start for you?
I do 3D, it started because I had to stop doing trains from too many arrests and my age these days (coff coff) so I started doing 3d's because I had pushed all my other styles I was doing to what I thought was the max for them and only had 3d to do.95% of all my pieces are freestyle. I don't like taking a sketch.


• Who was your main inspiration at the start?
I live in Wollongong so when I started I only saw old school bombing and pieces by Poker and FDK crew (I never ever got to meet them) but I was very young then and didn't know or meet any other writers for close to ten years of writing because of demographics and home life.


• What are you trying to say or create with your art?
I am trying to create something different and it has to be "freestyle" every time I pick up a can or marker. Style is what I'm about and when I finally get stagnant I will give it up. But I want to create things that are different from everyone out there and Hopefully I am achieving this but if I'm not I don't mind either because I'm happy with my shit.I have never sent a photo to the magazines ever.


• Where have you taken your art or had it put up?
Trains, trains, trains, trains, trains but I’ve had a few things in the Canberra National Gallery in the late 90's and one or two pissy canvases here and there. I do a lot of canvases constantly but have never been asked or pursued the gallery route. Maybe I might make that this years challenge?


• How have you used your art to change your lifestyle?
Well it has made me very open minded and given me a different outlook on life, but at the same time it is what I have dedicated my whole life to which has cost me a lot in my personal and professional life too...So now I try and find a happy medium between my personal life and my relationships instead of giving it all up for graffiti.


• How does the community benefit from your art?
When we do our stuff we are tidying up the spots most times. I have done so much community art and legal’s I stopped doing it because I was becoming what I always said I wouldn't become Artist wise.


• With the boom of urban art & the many classifications such as street art, graffiti, bombers. . How do you view these styles & what would you like to say about them?
I don't like a lot of the above classification styles because a lot of them are generic and unoriginal but I appreciate good style and conceptual works. I will leave it at that.... hmmmmm

•Would you call most of it art?
Would I call most of it art?
Yes its all art no matter what. It gets its classifications (Art or Vandalism) due to the standard of which one does his trade. People rate Abstract Art when one cant see what's in it or what's going on but they are quick to downgrade wacky toy tags or the rest of the Art form. Not everyone can just grab a can and get up, I mean they can... but you know it when you see it. As long as one is having fun painting no matter what or the standard of work that is being produced, that is what its about, the classification is meaningless then because Art should be about self expression not what others think...
