Painting and illustration

As an artist I create paintings and illustrations in both digital and traditional mediums. Flexible, I explore a variety of styles as well as continuing to develop my unique aesthetic language

Famous Monsters

An ongoing series of paintings of iconic horror characters. This tryptch depicts Leatherface (Texas Chainsaw Massacre), Michael Myers (Halloween) and Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th)

Uzumaki Graffiti

A tribute to the horror manga Uzumaki by Junji Ito, painted in VR using a program called “Kingspray” that simulates spray paint and wall surfaces to allow the creation of large scale pieces that have the unique texture of graffiti art, without the need for actual physical space

Kirbsplosion

A horrific illustrated interpretation of the, usually cute, Nintendo video game character Kirby
