Leeds based illustrator with an eye for creating fantastical worlds.

It's fantasy clinging by its fingertips to reality. Everything has a deeper meaning that often focuses on political, sociological or environmental issues. By using imaginary worlds to give these topics more interest I hope to inspire people to figure out their own narratives and creative awareness. Digital painting and textures coupled with more recent experimentation into the realms of Augmented Reality are granting the work produced even more opportunity to blur the lines between the physical and the imagined.
