Aicey developed a very recognizable style while attending an art course at the Burdekin Institute of TAFE in Home Hill (1999-2004. His artworks reflect his love for the flora and fauna of the land and sea of Tropical North, Queensland Australia.

He is a founding member of Murris in ink and a participant in Cairns Indigenous Art Fair 2009 and 2010. His work was included in Ngapa Kai Kai, a folio of linocut prints which toured Qld and NSW.
