Available to hire
I am a multi-skilled artist with decades of experience in traditional art, storyboarding, concept art, and model making. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines, from editorial illustration to film and TV production, and I love turning ideas into tangible visuals with craft and attention to detail.
Semi-retired and open to occasional contract work, I continue to explore sci-fi concepts, patterning, and custom model builds for a range of clients, including aerospace and defense partners. I value clear communication, creative problem solving, and delivering finished pieces that align with project goals.
