Since the age of 5, I've always been seen with a pencil in my hand, frantically illustrating what is in my head. I'm obsessed with image making, distilling a complex idea down to a few simple marks. My illustration inspiration comes in many forms, from 1950's poster art to the quirky Japanese illustrated characters used to promote the simplest of products. I try to keep my ideas timeless - grounded in the iconic symbols of a bygone era. I use graphite on paper, adding digital colour to my illustration, making it the perfect medium for print, advertising and online usage.
