Rockhampton MIRROR October 24, 2012
Up-and-coming singer to come to Rocky
showcase at Big Sound, debut at
the Gympie Muster and support
both Pete Murray and Mark
Seymour.
His new single Conversations
and Complications has already
featured in the top 10 most
ordered for airplay on Airit after a
week at radio.
His lyrics exude loss,
redemption, love and hope.
See Brad play at Rockhampton’s
Studio 2 Nightclub on Friday, with

Peek into artist’s life
and recording in pencil the
development of this
growing city.
Rees drew public
buildings such as the
Brisbane General Post
Office and the Treasury
Building, but was also
inspired by the
construction of St John’s
Cathedral.
Academically, Rees did
not fare particularly well
in mathematics or physics,
but this made no difference
in his ability to render
architecture in pencil on
paper.
He was attracted to
features particular to
religious architecture, such
as columns and window
finishes on exteriors, but
he also captured the
reverence of interior space
created by soaring walls
and high ceilings.
Rees made these
drawings in the early 20th
century, a time that
predated the infiltration of
motor vehicles on to city
streets. Instead, horses
and carts are pictured
alongside sketches of

in us.
Looking back on that now,
it was the best lesson our
parents could have given us.
My advice to the youth is
be strong; respect your
peers and your elders
because it’s all part of
character building to make
you a better adult and a
better manager.
Look at Kerry Packer for
example, his father made
him work from the ground
up before he ever became
chairman. He had to work
in many positions, and from
that he gained experience
and knew how to handle
every situation when his
time came.
You’ll come out on the
other side a much better
leader.

IT ALWAYS feels like a
wonderful privilege to have
a sneak peek at an artist’s
sketchbook.
This is where an artist’s
ability deftly captures a
scene, or an idea occurs,
and it is in the sketchbook
where it feels like pure
skill is on display.
Brisbane-born Lloyd
Rees (1895-1988) is one
such artist, and a collection
of his drawings – many
from his sketchbooks –
along with a small
selection of paintings and
drawings is on display at
Rockhampton Art Gallery.
Lloyd Rees: Life and
Light is a touring
exhibition from
Queensland Art Gallery.
It is a delightful
exhibition curated by
Michael Hawker, and many
of the drawings on show
were gifted to the
Queensland Art Gallery
from the family of Lloyd
Rees.
He was a prolific drawer,
and as a young man would
often wander the streets of
inner Brisbane observing
WORKING your way up to
the top throughout your
career is an exciting,
challenging and rewarding
journey.
Talking to business
colleagues and clients,
there’s a common
perception that members of
today’s younger generation
entering the business world
don’t seem to want to work
their way to the top, but
want to go straight there.
A managerial position
requires experience.
And with age and
knowledge come more
responsibility. To be a
manager you need life/work
experience to deal with
situations.
When I was growing up
my parents bought a dairy
farm.
My younger brother and I
helped Mum milk the cows
before and after school from
the time I was in Year 3 to
Year 8.
I used to get upset that all
our other friends in town
got pocket money for
making their bed, but we
didn’t get paid for milking
the cows, so working hard
was instilled in us from a
young age.
It was just what we had to
do, and in the long run it
instilled great work ethics
