Gugga - First Place 2023

Born and raised on Wiradjuri land in a town called Lithgow before relocating to Brisbane QLD at a young age. ...  I had a very successful boxing career culminating in challenging for a world title in Monte Carlo. This was an extremely proud moment. Having retired from boxing, I have somewhat lost my way in life, painting is my calm, it is my health and well-being. When I paint my mind is blank, I am in a meditative state. I am beyond grateful that Uncle Darren Dunn has helped me reconnect with Country and Culture. I am now married and have a young 10-month-old daughter, I look forward to passing down my knowledge and ensuring she is grounded through our culture. ... Reconnecting with my heritage and my culture has also a big part in my success in life. My hope for the future is to help younger Mob in a similar situation to where I was, to help them see there is a better life waiting for them.
