Hi There,

I am an illustrator and concept artist based in south Wales, When it comes to my art, I have a very strong work ethic, and while I take my work very seriously I am able to accept and interpret criticism due to my belief that it will make me a better artist. I have worked with people on all levels, from video calls with CEO’s to a bashful email asking for me to draw their fist commission, and as such I am accustomed retaining a high standard of work whilst being regularly challenged and taken outside of my comfort zone while staying good humoured, approachable and able to adjust easily to differing working environments.

After Attending University to get a degree in game design I actually have been in the production pipeline for a lot of board/tabletop games and the skills learned from video game design have transferred quite nicely. I have a long list of previous work but some of the more recent projects I have worked on are as follows.
