Currently based in my home town of Manchester. I prefer work within the creative/fashion industries. I have a large background in fashion retail and have worked in the industry for over 10 years so have vast knowledge of behind, and in the forefront of the fashion industry. Over the past few years I discovered my hidden talent as an illustrator. I decided to pursue this as a career path. I worked on my design skills to improve and develop myself, as an illustrator and graphic designer, with a very precise and accurate style to my work. I enjoy working mainly in pencil and paper (traditional). I specialise in portraiture and digital illustration but my ability expands, from; fashion, character design, graffiti, letter forms, type, logo design, animal portraiture, human portraiture, caricatures, digital illustration, landscape drawing, painting (oils and acrylics), still life and so on. Basically i am open to trying anything style-wise which will test my technical abilities. I am also fond of fine art which I feel a lot of my work lends itself to. I am also fully in tune with the 'less is more' approach, to graphic design. I have a large interest in computer games, specifically consoles. I love concept art and cover art. This is a field i feel is one of the only fields hanging on to the magic that is 'cover art'. With digital download and streaming taking over the music industry you don't get to see new album covers or inlays any more. Computer games still have that about them though which is nice. Always feels good in a nostalgic way buying a new game and checking out the artwork inside, and on the cover. Also love digital concept art specifically work done for the game battlefield 1 and GTA V.I enjoy photography and have done promo shoots for a few bands, also expanding to weddings, birthdays and fashion.

Listed skills include Illustrator, Illustration, Graphic Design, Art, and 17 others.
