A week before Christmas I got a call from Cameron Emerson-Elliot from Rolling Stone Australia to illustrate this years Rolling Stone Award winner Paul Kelly. Not only was it a childhood dream to illustrate for Rolling Stone but also being a massive Paul Kelly fan Christmas came early in 2010! Below are some shots of the double page spread which is out now in the March issue of RS Australia.
The awards where held on Australia Day eve and one off prints of each of the award winners portraits where auctioned off on the night with the proceeds going to the Queensland flood victims. The award winners where illustrated by 11 Australian illustrators including fav's and mates WeBuyYourKids & Matt Huynh. Many, many thanks to Cameron Emerson-Elliot, AD at Rolling Stone Australia!

Under the shots is a special youtube clip of my dad's band Redhouse Roll Band from the 70s pumping out Good Golly Miss Molly in 1972 at the Torquay Hotel to keep up with the Aussie Rock theme.
