Artist Statement:
I work as a street pavement
artist, or "Screever". With
pastels and kneepads in tow, I
create original street murals
at festivals and special
events.
Screeving has enabled me to
earn an income from my art
since I was 17.
Pavement Art is art for the
masses.. it is created for
the joy of the whole
community.. Now it's getting
hard to travel anywhere
without doing a street
drawing!.. makes me feel at
home in the wide world. Since
1987 I've worked throughout
Australia, New Zealand and
Canada, and have also worked
in England, Wales, Germany,
Lithuania, and Japan.
The art is a performance,it
out-lives itself in people's
memories, but what I like most
about street art is the way it
can be a delightful surprise
to strangers, a little sacred
site in the midst of the grey
city for all to enjoy...
My public work artwork is site
specific, and I try to make it
as topical and relevant to the
audience as possible,
favouring nature and fantasy
as my themes.
