Illustrator based in London & South West, U.K.
As an illustrator i use visual dialogue to describe social and political issues, the passage of time & its effect on our very existence. Intersecting subject matter often prominent with landscapes, habitat, architecture & environment. Running concurrently are thematic influences drawn from cult film and dystopian literature.
Each illustration is created using the practice of pointillism, created by juxtaposing dots to give depth of image.
