Your work is alright... can I commission something?

Um...sometimes. I have a very busy day job that also involves creating art for 9 hours a day, 5 days a week, so the last thing I want to do most night is draw again when I get home. So for the time being, I won't be taking on any commissions for the time being

I enjoy drawing too... what inspires you?

Like most illustration artists, I grew up on a steady diet of comic books, science fiction and fantasy movies which in no small part molded the person I am today. I love, love, LOVE The Empire Strikes Back, Blade Runner, Brazil but in recent years, I've come to adore the films of Pixar. Oh, and I also love anything that has to do with post-apocalyptic futures and Zombies.

What about TV? Do you watch anything on the tube?

Not really... I'll occasionally veg out on the couch and watch a marathon of 'guilty pleasures' but the only things I'll go out of my way to watch are QI, the Walking Dead, Being Human (UK), and That Mitchell and Webb Look.
