Graduated with a technical illustration degree from Blackpool in 2001, then worked for Atari in newcastle doing menial LOD and level editing work for 5 years before jacking it in and am now looking to get a job as an artist or level designer.
Mostly do sketching, ink and bic biro stuff, scanned in and worked over with photoshop. Have worked with all modern media, favorites being charcoal and airbrush, but it's cheaper to use the PC in these unemployed days. Would like to get back into large painting and back into oil paint next year. Favorite artists include Sir Ken Adam, Anton Furst, Ashley Wood, and legendary futurist architect Antonio Sant Elias. Also fond of Frazetta and his followers, Bisley, Staples et al, plus the whole chiaroscuro masters, and I always liked Chris Achilleos.
