Brief Summary
I am a British pop artist, illustrator and interactive designer from the rainy city (Manchester) but am resident now in the land of ice and snow (Norway).
I was born in 1974 and have been making painting, illustration and my own very analogue take on interactive design since as long as I can remember. Described as "The Kate Bush of New Media" and "an artist of dark psychedelic phantasmagoria" I use humor, popular culture and people as my inspiration.
Clients, collaborators and collectors of what I produce range from the well known... Diesel, to the legendary... Mick Rock, to the niche... Smalltown Supersound and a whole lot of others in between.
Over the years my work has been awarded by The FWA, D&AD, Design Week, Visuelt, One Show Interactive, LIA, Roses, Pixel Awards, London International Creatives and The Webbys.
I have exhibited in group and solo shows in the UK and my work has been covered in Wired, Computer Arts, Hot Rod, Oprah Magazine, Creative Review and Vogue amongst others.
