About

First and foremost, I love art. I love creating it, viewing it, teaching it and even learning it. For me art is not just something I do, it's part of my DNA. As a freelance artist I love taking a client's ideas and bringing them to life. Whether through children's book illustration, fine art and portraits, concept art or game design, I want to engage with my audience, to captivate them or even inspire. During my time I have been lucky enough to work with both Disney and Fox on game design and was singled out for praise by the Disney CEO. Latterly I have worked with authors to illustrate their books, supplied artwork to charitable organisations and even taken time to run workshops in local schools, teaching and inspiring the next generation of artists. During my free time I enjoy spending time with my family as well as cookery and eating out.
