A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Bio
I am currently working as freelance/contract Illustrator/Graphic Print Designer.
Ive worked for roughly a decade for one of the big corporate apparel companies in the area of menswear apparel design.
That has been overlapped with public mural work, commissioned illustrations, skateboard art, character design for animation and have participated in many gallery exhibitions.
I draw or paint most days and have various projects on the go at any one time. I also surf and have a deep understanding of the surf industry and the ever evolving design aesthetic that exists within that industry. Much of the influence on my graphic style comes from renowned street artists, whose own challenging street graphics define the changing look and design of surf wear print.
MY INFLUENCES
Work
My graphic style is influenced by a number of artists, designers and illustrators.
I'm a big fan of Ralph Steadman, Gerald Scarfe, Robert Crumb, Tomi Ungerer, comic artist Peter Bagge, Gilbert Shelton and a host of painters, film makers and musicians.
