Profile
Did my art training some time back in two spurts – when I was young, doing the ‘life broadening’ 1st yr arts Common Course – and when I returned from the country with a family and responsibilities many years later, completing an Assoc Dip in Design. Since then, have inhabited the two worlds of casual work and illustration on the side. I like using a range of media – pen and ink and gouache mostly – oils for strictly masochistic personal use.
Am enjoying Red Bubble as a creative community, and waking up to new possibilities each day as I admire all this amazing work!
Camera: Lumix Panasonic DMC-FX01
