About

I’ve done a variety of work in the creative industry, including drawing a graphic novel for a local publisher, working for art on indie games and working as a background colourist for an animated show. I also enjoy doing character design and making highly stylised 2D work. My education is in graphic design but I’d love to be on board with more game and animation projects.
