CREATIVE STATEMENT
My interest in art began at a young age, in primary school I had an art teacher that lined the classroom with posters and artwork from various artists both known and unknown. The piece I remember most was a simple poster with just the words, "Without art, we are but monkeys with car keys." Art is a window to someone's mind and as a fantasy illustrator it is my great honor to show others the window of your mind. For an illustration to be successful I believe it needs to accurately depict the source material, and to captivate the viewer.

Q&A
What super power do you wish for?
I would love the superpower to have anything I create come alive... dangerous as that would be. I always love the idea of being a mad scientist.
What is your favorite show or film?
I would have to say Hook, with Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman, is my favorite movie. The way they make Neverland feel like its own world instead of just a set is magic in its own right.
Which do you prefer: outer space, deep sea, or fantasy lands?
OOOoooooo... I have to say “fantasy lands” since it's my niche, but “deep sea” is a close second.
