I am loyal to traditionally crafted artwork, prefering to work as authentically as possible, giving my work a remarkably genuine feel. However I do use state of the art programs when necessary.
My portfoglio ranges from fictional drawings, paintings, satirical cartoons, commic strips, landscape painting, entertainment posters, music album covers to text book illustrations.

My style is more gritty, rough and spontaneous as I like to contrast quick free lines with careful precision, it is a scribbly style which I can mould into more restrained detail depending on the needs of my employers. I sculpt in alabaster stone or with clay and paint in acrylic and oils, I also work with water colors and color pencils.I particularly like ink for cartoon and portraiture.  

I get inspired by engaged interaction with my employers, I enjoy disecting the exact vision  they search to describe.
My work satisfaction comes from creatively illustrating the inspiration of others.
