Born 25th February 1996,
I hail from Accrington in Lancashire, grew up into comic books shaping me into the guy I am today.
Growing up I got introduced to comics through watching the 90's Spider-man cartoon and playing the Spidey game on Playstation. I started with the kids Spider-man magazines and I must have been aged 8 or 9 when I read my first real comic, a UK printing of Wolverine & Gambit and I collected a few more titles at the time although it still being a bit advanced for me. By the time I reached High School I was getting heavily into comic books and unfortunately received the usual high school response to my geeky hobby, but that didn't stop me. If you enjoy doing something, why should someone else's views on the subject matter. I didn't start getting any respect from these people until the end of my high school days but in that time while the sociables got drunk and went to their parties, me and my friends worked on our lives. In my case, I went to conventions, got tips off professional writers, worked on my artwork, assisted in my local comic shop, wrote some stories and short films and above all met the legend that is Stan Lee.
From High School I went on to do an art course at Blackburn college where I met my awesome girlfriend and I am currently working on a level 3 course.
I started this site to showcase my work and hopefully get some commission work sorted through it. Eventually hopefully it'll expand into what I hope to be a comicbook business run by me and my girlfriend.
Check out my work and if the page is up yet feel free to request a commision. Prices will be listed on the page. :)
