About me
I began drawing in childhood and never stopped. I have created illustrations for clients as diverse as The National Portrait Gallery, Gogglebox, The Guardian newspaper, Walker Books, BBC, Esquire, Mojo and many more. I am illustrator of the Award Winning, New York Times Bestselling ‘Stories For Boys Who Dare To Be Different’ series of books by Ben Brooks. ‘Monsters - 100 Weird Creatures From Around the World’ by Sarah Banville and myself is my latest project, and is published by Wren and Rook. I live in Kent by the sea with my partner and two children.

On 315gsm watercolour paper at A1 size (59.4 x 84.1cm). Available in 2 beautiful colours: 'Let It Be Ombre' and 'For You Blue'. £100, plus £10 p&p. DM me to order.
