Grant Nimmo is my favourite Melboure artist. He is also my friend and despite his dislike for being photographed, he allowed me to come into his studio the day before his show at Anna Pappas Gallery and photograph him in his studio. If you have money, I recommend you invest in Grants work before Charles Saatchi snaps it all up. (I 100% believe this will happen any day now.) Thankyou Grant.
I took these photos for threethousand and I was so nervous after being rejected by the first ten people that I asked that I proceeded to get drunk on the free vodka courtesy of my friend behind the bar and go on to take 233 photos before midnight. I was doing ok until I tapped John Safran on the shoulder and told him how i reeeeally liked his work 'like really' and how I had wanted to marry his director Craig Melville since I was 13 (Craig is my best friends brother). He then politely asked my name and texted Craig to tell him of my plans.
