About
Hi, I’m Shayne, originally from New Zealand but I’ve always called Australia home. Art has always been my passion and driving force, leading me to explore visual communication and eventually pursue a career as a graphic designer after earning an advanced diploma in visual communication.
As an artist, I find immense joy in creating and expressing myself through various mediums. My artwork has been featured in exhibitions around town, where I love sharing my unique perspective and connecting with others through creativity.
In my design work, I specialise in corporate identity. I thrive on translating the essence of a brand into visually compelling designs that resonate with its audience. It’s about blending creativity with strategic thinking to craft identities that stand out in the marketplace.
When I’m not immersed in art or design projects, you can often find me playing inline hockey. There’s something exhilarating about flying around the rink and being part of a team. Off the rink, I’m passionate about music, particularly playing drums, where I find rhythm and inspiration.
My journey as both an artist and graphic designer is fueled by a deep-seated passion for creativity and a desire to make a meaningful impact through visual storytelling. I’m constantly exploring new ideas and techniques to push the boundaries of both art and design.

Exhibitions
Bastardised is a collection of art based on artists I’m inspired by (and the artists I love to hate) toys I’ve had, loved and lost, cartoons and movies I can never forget, music I like, and famous games I’ve played. All of the things I have discovered through advertising since childhood which have given me fond memories.
Identity Crisis: “A period of uncertainty and confusion in which a persons sense of identity becomes insecure, typically due to a change in their expected aims or role in society”.
This series takes you through a journey of the various minds of intense exploration of different roles and aspects of oneself.
Each of us share this issue in many different ways due to our influences and expectations of others. It’s easy to forget who we really are.
This series captures my thoughts and influences with foggy memories.
