1st Year University, 2004



I found both the plates and the prints to these two pieces from my University days back in Falmouth. I would like to try print making again, as my style of drawing could make a good relationship with print making. The Portrait above is an etching, the Abstract Landscape was done using acid.

"'New Directions"


These are a number of developmental drawings or attempts, as a change to my characters designs with no backgrounds.  The landscape Artist is still a popular direction on the Isle of Man, but I have been thinking of taking inspiration of the islands landscape and adding a twist, with Bison, wild animals and people traveling through the lands. So to get going, I always exercise this with a number of examples of my own. 70% of the time I make gestural lines inside a rough box and take it from there... lets see where this goes!
