Aussie! Aussie! Aussie! Oi Oi Oi!

Hi there!

We were so thrilled to learn that a client of ours, Jarrod Wheatley, was recently awarded the 2019 NSW Young Australian of the Year. Jarrod is an innovative, social entrepreneur working to create positive change in the community.

We worked with Jarrod a few years ago on a video for PIC, Professional Individualised Care, a new form out out-of-home care making a real difference in the lives of children. Recently we updated the video and we'd love you to take a look and learn about the work of this amazing organization.

And of course, a big congratulations to Jarrod!

festival21: Fawning over Food

It was such a joy to graphically record the festival21 conference at the Melbourne Meat Market earlier this month. With provocative presentations from farmers, dieticians, politicians, scientists, musicians, and of course—plenty of food to sample, it really was a wonderful and ultimately optimistic celebration of our obsession with growing, sourcing, transporting, packaging, buying, eating, and disposing of food.

A huge thank you to the Sandro Demaio Foundation for giving us the opportunity to be involved. We're pretty proud of the final canvases pictured here—take a look through and make an effort to dive into any of the topics that spark your interest. The presentations certainly made me more conscious of the impact we have on planet Earth, and what small things I can do to try and minimise my footprint.

Featured Video:
Revitalising Central Geelong

We were really pleased to be able to help the team at Revitalising Central Geelong create a video explaining their current issues of transport and parking  in the city,  and inviting the public to get involved in finding some solutions to the problems.

It's such a well-thought out, inclusive way of working out how best to deal with balancing a thriving business district with the challenges of population growth and changing community needs and expectations.

Check out the video, and if you live in Geelong, have your say at the Revitalising Geelong program website.

We'd also like to do a bit of shout out to Foster Carers Victoria and the Caring For Carers fundraising they're running on chuffed.org at the moment. We're in awe of the work they do and if you'd like to support them, head chuffed.org/project/fcavretreat (there are just 3 days remaining in their fundraising campaign!)

That's it from us. We're super busy with fabulous projects at the minute—live sketching conferences, and business meetings, creating videos for government, business and not for profit and illustrating posters on a whole range of fascinating topics. But we've always got room for more.

So contact us if you need something sketchy, sketched.

Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram have more from us so check out the socials.

Cheers
