BASS PLAYING SKATER HIKER ARTIST.
Pretty much sums me up in one sentence. Oh, and I don’t take myself too seriously. But I do take my work seriously and I have been drawing since I could hold a pencil.
From doodling in the margins of my school books to steering my education to a B.A in Illustration and Animation at MMU. That’s where I discovered my passion for Children’s books. Through the Macmillan Children’s Book competition, I was introduced to the whole process. So for me, writing, storyboarding and character design, are a natural progression and I love to see how tiny egg ideas can grow into fully fledged booklings!
I also really love working with other creative minds like you! Drawing out your visions and communicating to achieve the best possible outcome, is something I am equally passionate about.
My interests are all forms of free expression and hiking in particular gives me the time and space for my mind to wander and allow the idea floodgates to open. I’m often to be found in the solitude of the fells, armed with a sketchbook, before returning to the studio fizzing with ideas and bubbling with enthusiasm.
If you would like to tap into this rich resource of creative passion, drop me an email, I would love to hear from you!

This is me, pretending to work in my studio which I also self built. I know what you’re thinking; ‘Are there no limits to this guys talents?’ Or at least, I HOPE you’re thinking that!
