- How To Be A Sad BoiThe term Sad Boi is something I only really encountered until this year (2019) when I met a work colleague for the first time, he said “you’re a proper sad boi aren’t you!?” I was confused but also, it resonated with me. I go back to singing along to Raleigh Ritchie (musician and self proclaimed sad boi) and washing pots, moaning about how my life isn’t coming to anything yet I continue to do nothing about it. Ultimately this term comes from someone who projects sadness, says self deprecating

Self Employed illustratorThomas Jon Walker
London, United KingdomFreelance
I started illustrating as of summer 2020 and experimented with new ways to create artworks and this led to creating commissions for customers and allowing me to experiment with programs like photoshop and pro create. This has been an informative way to communicate my ideas to clients and it has been an interesting way to experiment with new medias.

I recently completed my postgraduate degree in Fine Art. During this intense

planning and setting up exhibitions and working together amongst a strong team
of artists, expressing concerns and resolving issues. As well as setting up shows,
we were our own marketing team,
