Hello, Influenced by reading too many 2000AD comics, drawing large scale dogfights on A3 paper and loving Battle of the Planets as much as Henry's cat, Ive worked across the greatly merging casm of the still and moving image.
My hands and mind have grafted in the illustration/animation/multimedia industry for clients such as MTV, Vh1, BBC, Mother Advertising, Fallon, Abbey Road Studios, The Guardian and John Brown Publishing.
I always look to create work that has some kind of atmosphere and seek out the visual gag in a conceptual idea or text to suit the brief that comes my way.
I have been an active and one of the many founder members of illustration collective Black Convoy.

a DVD showreel and Portfolio is available on request with selected high res versions of current projects

I am also happily represented by AgencyRush

enjoy the show:-)
