I AM

Ok, the short version. Born in Ipswich. Moved to Dalby where I spent most of my youth playing games and drawings and feeling isolated. Eventually grew up, had my first kiss, drank my first beverage, won my first duel and moved to Brisbane. I studied as long as it takes to be a doctor in the field of design, illustration and visual arts. Finally after many years of study and hex debt, thought it was time to get a job. Worked at several firms to realise the creative design industry wasn't quite the creative I hoping it to be.

More recently I have been freelancing for the past year to extend my skills as an illustrator. If design is my bread and butter, illustration is my jam. I know I said it. I'm available to do most kinds of jobs within the realms of illustration and graphic design. I've done editorials, book publishing, fashion, advertising, retail, branding, packaging, press work and even a little bit of front end web.

If you like my stuff, and would like to get in contact, I would love to chat. Please contact me on the below email address.
