PLEASE ASK ABOUT COMMISSIONS :) ...I have been drawing all my life, and have been constantly inspired by my travels and by many diverse artists, but especially fantasy artwork. I most often draw from memory and my imagination, and only drawing from life when doing portraits or when a totally new topic comes to mind. Inspired by artists like Brian Froud, I try to incorporate Hidden pictures and faces within my paintings and sketches. The sky, trees and rocks become creatures and beings in an imaginative new perspective... Having finished my studies in art at a mere GCSE level, i have since carried on creating pieces of work on a commission basis, often setting myself tasks in which i learn techniques, to incorporate with my own. My style varies to encompass my influences, but all my work i am told, and i hope, has my own unmistakable originality. Although a lot of my work can be very contrasting, The Urban Faery is the name which emcompasses all my artwork...a name to be seen and heard of a lot more in the future I hope!... I also sing, and will have some samples of my work, and work i have done with others asap up here shortly...
Who I'd like to meet:
