I’m an author-illustrator and I began my journey in animation making short films for Channel 4. These days I spend more time doing illustration, it feels like a treat to work on a few images rather than hundreds!
I am a Royal College of Art graduate, RSA Design Award winner, film BAFTA nominee and maybe most notable, won a Blue Peter Badge when was eight. I got into sketchbooks at art school and I found it a huge revelation – having a private place to explore drawing, ideas, materials, and it has became a way of life for me.
I grew up in Paignton, a slightly faded seaside town and I have a new found respect for the place by painting it. I like to pop my characters into big, breezy landscapes, just to see what might spark a new story. Needless to say, there’s always a few brewing.
