Not a walk-in shop.

Pieces from the coast

The Illawarra in the work.

A lot of Dylan’s work comes from the coast he lives on: the swell, the escarpment, the lighthouses and the fish he chases on days off. If you want a piece that belongs to the Illawarra, he’s the right person to ask. [Dylan: a line about Illawarra-inspired pieces.]
