# About me
My inspiration comes from Japanese and American culture, comics, animation and movies!By day I work as a designer, from anything from print to digital, but I on my own time I like to cut loose and continue to enjoy what I do! I particularly love to draw dynamic action, cars and sexy women!
My list of favourite artists is ever expanding, always collecting sketches, prints and art books and I love to stop and chat with fellow artists at conventions!
Some of the artists that inspire me most in my work include J Scott Campbell, Masamune Shirow, Kenchi Sonoda, Jim Lee, Koh Kawarajima, Gensho Sugiyama.
To date, my work has appeared in, and on the covers of, UK convention books, web articles and won awards.
I’m still setting up a presence on social media and a web site, but as I settle, I will be establishing what and where I’ll be uploading my work and releasing updates on ongoing projects and convention appearances.

I didn't get a chance to reply back to you before JE's whole page freaked out. Anyway . . .
Whew! It seems I'm not always good at explaining myself, lol. It's all good.

No worries, sorry its taken me this long to reply
Its amazing, we're able to communicate with people from all over the world, but we're still capable of misunderstanding eachother
Anyways, hope you are well
PS - what did become of that JE thing anyway?

Hey thanks for the llama. What are you up to nowadays?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no worries dude, nice to hear from you
Been focusing on getting my career going, which isn't easy considering how tight things are atm.
How are you anyway?

I'm doing good. I'm still in school and just got back from Paris (I was there for a month.) I'm ready to start getting serious though.
I hope the best for your career though. Are you doing more animations? That one you did was great, both as a concept and as a finished piece.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Good to hear! Paris is a great place to reignite your inspiration!
Thanks! I'm still grafting away doing the odd freelance gig along side my job as a flash video editer and programmer. It's not a million miles from what I'm hoping to do, but its more techy than artistic, but it could be alot worse. I'm hoping to push forward with my own work on the side while the job market picks up.
Sorry to say I haven't got any plans for an animation at the moment though, they require alot of man hours than my illustration work, which I get more of a kick out of at the moment. Although I won't rule out the possiblity in the future
Anyway, hope you are well dude
