Day two of Breeze Block Gate. Blocks removed. Danger tape erected. We are soldiering on🫡

View from inside A Boy Named Aaron / Nordacious art and gift store in Gaythorne, Brisbane, looking out towards the courtyard and customer car park. Four illustrated T-shirts hang in the doorway, featuring Hunka Spunk, Succulent Chinese Meal, Frank-N-Furter with “Don’t Dream It, Be It”, and Dolly Parton with “Do It On Purpose”. Outside, tropical plants frame the entrance, where a decorative white breeze-block wall is conspicuously missing after a milk truck reversed into it the previous day. The rubble has now been cleared, leaving red caution tape strung across the damaged area while the shop remains open for business.

was not expecting our shop entrance to look like this today

the aftermath of a milk truck reversing into the breeze block wall outside our shop entrance, leaving large sections of the white geometric wall collapsed across the front steps. A yellow “Caution: Wet Floor” sign stands in the foreground

I’M IN L♥VE WITH THE $HAPE OF YOU

A satirical illustration titled Shape of You. From the viewer’s perspective behind a lavish 1970s-style executive desk, two enormous hands stretch and contort a tiny, smiling Ed Sheeran figure like a pliable toy. His neck and white T-shirt are pulled upwards, while his legs and sneakers twist below him. He holds a yellow guitar, whose headstock is labelled “Cuck” in tiny red cursive. Around him is a glamorous corporate interior of dark woodgrain, glass bricks, chrome, thick carpet and a graphic green plant. On the desk are two blue pens, one marked with a tiny droplet of red resembling blood; a plan of Gillette Stadium; a bright orange telephone displaying the lyric “Boy, let’s not talk too much”; and a small Israeli flag.

“Refusing to take a side doesn’t leave you in the middle.”

Graphic illustrated poster reading, “Choosing to not get ‘too political’ is still a political decision.” The words “too political” are highlighted in red against a black background, with a small watermelon slice representing Palestinian solidarity. A red banner along the bottom reads, “Silence = complicity.”

Haven’t made this many slides since uni (and I’m not mad about it). Prepping for tomorrow’s Ecosocialism 26 Conference, where I’ll be sharing the stage with other artists discussing Cultural Intifada: Art and Social Change. 11:30am, Albion Peace Centre. Keen! ecosocialism.org.au

Collage of political illustrations by Nordacious for the Cultural Intifada: Art and Social Change Roundtable Workshop at Ecosocialism 26. Works address Palestine, genocide, Australian politics, militarism ~ through bold, graphic poster-style illustration and political satire.

Signing another Frank-N-Furter (albeit, so bittersweetly). Each month I draw a winner from each of my Patreon collector tiers - Tier 3 receives an A4, and Tier 4 an A3 of whatever artwork their little heart desires, beautifully printed as an archival-quality giclée on cotton rag.

Close-up of James signing a colourful archival giclée art print of Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, printed on textured cotton rag paper. The artwork features Tim Curry in dramatic makeup against a vivid teal background, with the words “DON’T DREAM IT, BE IT” across the top in blood orange.

perhaps my favourite thing about Dolly was that she could've been a billionaire, but she was simply just too philanthropic. bless her soul. (also ~ Truvy Jones, amirite 🌼)

Retro pop-art illustration inspired by Steel Magnolias, showing Olympia Dukakis as Clairee on the left + Dolly Parton as Truvy on the right, smiling conspiratorially at each other. They’re framed by bright pink, turquoise graphics, with glamorous 80s hair, makeup and jewellery. Above them reads, “If you don’t have anything NICE to say about anybody…” and below “Come Sit By Me!”

Oh, Tim. Frank-N-Furter, Pennywise, that face, that voice, that wicked little GLINT. So strange, glamorous, funny, frightening and completely unforgettable. Thank you for the thrills, the nightmares and the absolute pleasure 🩵

Three illustrated tributes to Tim Curry: two portray him as Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and one as Pennywise from It. Two are vibrant, retro-inspired digital illustrations, while another shows a fine-liner pointillism portrait alongside its finished printed artwork.

Oh, Dolly. The world is a little dimmer without your wit, your sparkle, your kindness, your talent. Rest easy, queen ~ thank you for the joy 🦋

Colourful pop art illustrated portrait of Dolly Parton, smiling in a sparkling green top against a bright floral background, surrounded by butterflies and flowers in her blonde hair. She'd cuddling a retro-looking cat.

Thank you Nat's What I Reckon for braving a viewer-submitted pregnancy craving of string cheese dipped into microwaved hot cocoa...as an avid cheese connoisseur myself, not even I could be tempted by this truly heinous-sounding combination. but thank you nevertheless for the Toadie representation 😅

This week I had the pleasure of being invited to St John Fisher College to present Turning Ideas Into Images - a talk and two-hour workshop I developed around finding your creative voice, building a career in the arts, and using visual communication to tell stories that matter.

Three images. The first is a selfie of me outdoors before presenting at St John Fisher College. The second is the title slide of my presentation, Turning Ideas Into Images, about finding your voice, building a creative career and telling stories through art. The third is a collage of presentation slides featuring examples of my artwork, personal photos, and visual communication concepts explored during the workshop.
