About

Some stuff about me…
I have a Commercial Art Diploma and a four-year Visual Arts Degree (Painting and Printmaking with Honours).
I have 3 years experience as a Concept Artist, focusing on character and environment design for digital children’s games.
I spent 2 years as a lead background artist for Clockwork Zoo, on the animated children’s TV show Caillou, for Cookie Jar Entertainment (Canada) and a background/texture artist on Florrie’s Dragons for Disney (UK).

For the last 5 years I have worked as a freelance Illustrator for various publishers and studios around the world. I am currently working in the publishing, animation and film industries as a freelance illustrator and visual development artist.

I’m passionate about art and creating worlds people can believe in and escape into. I am meticulous and believe that attention to detail is vital in order to create convincing images. I am inspired by nature, movies and books and I love the work of illustrators like Shaun Tan and Bobby Chiu.

I am always looking for new and exciting projects to work on!
