Dane Lovett, (1984), is an artist from Brisbane, Australia. He attended high school on the Gold Coast, and graduated from QUT with a Bachelor of Fine Art degree in 2004. [1]

Lovett says career highlight was winning a cake box decorating competition in 1991, with the prize of a book on hippopotamuses. [2]

In 2005, his pieces Carlo fed by Two, Resting + 1000ml Can, Face Over Track and Inner-Metro Parking Dragon were finalists in the Qantas Spirit of Youth award. [3] One of the prizes for this award is mentorship from Elizabeth Ann MacGregor.

His exhibitions have included: Tales From Metropolis, exhibited in February, 2005, at the Art Galleries Schubert, Queensland. In early 2006, his Bellevue Rivals collection, originally inspired by the sight of a greyhound and its trainer in a backstreet of Brisbane, and also gambling culture associated with dog racing, was shown at the same gallery. Private Eye was shown in late 2005, at the Brian Moore Gallery, Sydney. In late 2006, his Ring Modulator collection was exhibited in Harrison Galleries, Sydney.

Lovett has made the cover art for Australian rock band Postcards Kaleido's album, Wise Old World, and subsequent singles, as well as Eskimo Joe's album, Black Fingernails, Red Wine, and subsequent singles. He was nominated for Best Cover Art in the ARIA Music Awards of 2006 for his work on Black Fingernails, Red Wine.
