This image was made in response to a commission from AGDA to make a flyer for George Hardie’s flying visit to Australia. The flyer is constructed as if it’s a record dust-jacket. This was a sincere and reverential homage to one of Prof. Hardie’s memorable illustrative styles, and also contains a nod to his trademark ‘G’ signature. However ‘A Lot of Axo’ (my title) is a terribly glib pun (on Axolotl) to try and sum up decades of work by one of the great design thinkers and illustrators! Just as well he’s unlikely to see it.
