About me:
Michael Cowell is an Illustrator/Artist based in Nottingham, England and works in paint, print, photography and digital.

Drawing inspiration from the more 'left of centre' genres of music, film, art and literature he hopes to one day impose his own unique interpretations on each one of these mediums.

Hopefully, one day this will all make sense...
