The magazine's cover, a collaboration between Russell Privett, Katherine Brickman and myself, is a gold-foil-celebratory-confetti affair re-living one of my favourite music moments of 2014: at Big Day Out, standing in the biggest sea of reflective, raining confetti; Arcade Fire howled Here Comes The Night Time into the sky while it turned to dusk in the background. Just magic!

As a stand-alone, special edition publication, each year's Annual has a different look and feel. In this year's approach, I explored a celebratory and irreverent tone of voice: from a bright and bold colour palette, expressive hand-lettering, cheeky graphic elements splashed loosely about unapologetically, imagery placed in many differing forms and shapes, to breaking mould with the rules of typography.

The 2014 triple j Annual was published through ABC Magazines, and could be purchased in newsagents, at ABC online and shops, over the summer period of 2014/15.
Below are some of the pieces I created during the concept phase, or that ended up on the proverbial cutting-room floor.

Hallo, nice to sea you here!
I'm Nat, I’m an Australian artist. I create feel-good art, illustration and lettering. Informed by a background in visual communication and art direction, I work with brands, agencies, publishers and people to communicate stories of connection, empowerment and awe. My practice is a sparkly, colourful ode to the wonder and joy I stumble upon in my universe using hand-drawn and digital techniques. A dream-like language of place, nature, words and people are playfully explored from my studio next to the ocean, amongst the trees on the south-east coast of Australia, on Djiringanj Country. Swimming, reading, plant-hoarding, travelling and wandering with my doggo in the forest keep me feeling human.
