He is the Creative Director of Dinosaur Designs which has grown to be one of Australia’s leading design brands specialising in resin and metallic jewellery and homewares. Ormandy is inspired by the natural world and is informed by a strong design aesthetic based on colour and form. There is a discernible dialogue between his large-scale oil paintings and sculptural work, with line, shape and surface each informing the other.

Ormandy has exhibited internationally at galleries and institutions in Sydney, New York, London, and Paris.
