Luke John Matthew Arnold is a name hog and a multi-disciplinary visual artist and illustrator working on Yuin Country in Braidwood. After making lots of creative work during his university days, Luke landed a job running an art department, and his object making came to a grinding halt. Unhappy with this new-found creative repression, he started doodling. He now collaborates with international brands and campaigns and shares his work on Instagram, with his distinctively camp, colourful, crude and sometimes political illustration.
