Grant Gittus




"There is a Moreton bay fig in Albert Park, which is one of my favourite trees. It cries out to have something secretive amongst its massive roots, that most people walk past without noticing." - Grant Gittus

Grant inspires by simply being him - a child with a huge heart that refuses to grow old.

With an exceptionally subtle and kind sense of humour, he keeps the school kids in line on Art Forum: http://www.artforum.com.au/. He is also a great Rotarian.

His works are always an inspiration, coming from a guy who believes that if he can do it, anyone can. Take a look at his works to see how wrong he is:

Tony Moffitt




"In 6 years Tony Moffitt went from a guy who had never picked up a paintbrush before in his life, to one of the "outstanding artists of the new millennium". He has won prizes in national competitions and prizes in juried shows in America. His work has been exhibited in Australia, The USA and China. His art has been featured in over 50 articles worldwide in magazines, newspapers and radio.All this without ever reading an art book, never attending an art class... and never going to an art gallery in his life..."

Needless to say why I am so attached to this guy.

Today Tony is helping emerging artists to kick start their careers with his Art World blog:

A site dedicated to artists that have, over the years, inspired me.

I hope you enjoy their work and ideas, as much as I do.
