News & Updates Newest to oldest
6th March 2009 |
Lots of News … I have recently launched ‘Instant Comics’, a webcomic to host short comics. I have been very busy with Inspired Comics. We went to Midlands MCM Expo to help run the art contest with Itch Publishing and in May we will be attending the Small Press Expo 2009 in Bristol. I was unable to update this site over Christmas, but any new work has now been added.
4th November 2008 | Manga Jiman I have made it to the top 10 in the Manga Jiman competition 2008, which is pretty exciting. I illustrated the comic and it was written and scripted by my friend Laura McNulty. The comic will be displayed in the Embassy of Japan next February.
12th September 2008 | Inspired I'm in a comic collective with a group of friends and we're selling our 1st anthology at this years Birmingham International Comics Show. Please visit www.myspace.com/inspiredcomics to find out more about the collective! It's been a while since I've updated, so I have added a couple new things to the Manga & Comics Section.
28th July 2008 | Art Week 2008 I've updated and added a couple new things but not much. I have been unable to draw a lot of new illustrations because of course work deadlines, exams and the end of year art exhibition at college. My designs where used for advertising the end of year show, it was a great opportunity but it meant I had more work to do. I have posted some photos in the Illustration & Graphic design section.
I will be drawing lots of comic pages over the summer. I'm entering as many competitions as I can this year and I'm hoping that the quality of the comics are much higher than last year because I've learned a lot in the past year. I'll try and update with more illustrations sometime soon!
5th May 2008 | The Long Awaited Update Sorry for taking so long to update. I was having a few problems with the software I use to get this website online, but that's all sorted now. There's a lot of new stuff online and I've changed the categories around a little bit. I hope you enjoy the new comics and check back again for more updates in the future. Thanks a lot for visiting!
I also recently went on a comics course. We created a anthology with a page each and I got to do the colouring on the cover. It was great I learned loads about creating comics and learned how to use a brush and ink. There are journals and things over on this website if you're interested. A couple of people from the course have now joined together to start a comic book collective. So everything is quite exciting right now! We're hoping to print an anthology and have a website before October.
5th December 2007 | Quality Update Hello again! This update is basically just for the quality of the images. I've also put up a couple more full comics if you would like to read them. I have also added Christmas card designs to the Illustration page. I will hopefully be adding more to the Illustration and Graphic Design sections of this website as soon as I can.
19th October 2007 | Website Launch I'm just finishing off this website ready to launch on the 23rd October. The illustration in the header was from a college project I'm working on. I just edited that a little to use here and I'm pretty pleased how it looks over all. I'm using the same image on business cards. I'm hoping that the contrasting colours/shades make the overall design attention grabbing and distinctive. I hope you enjoy the website anyway.
