I'm an award-winning cartoonist. illustrator, and comic artist living and working in Sydney, Australia.

In the last 15 years or so of solid freelancing I feel I have gained a lot of experience, but am not content to be idle. I'm constantly striving to improve my skills; experimenting with form and style. I believe that we should never stop learning.

Along with regular magazine illustration and comic strips, I draw for a variety of large and small businesses, from spot illos and t-shirts, to character design for branding and logos, mainly through my agency; The Drawing Book.

I've thoughtfully put together some logos of my clients for you to look at. And for those of you with thirsty minds, I have a whole swag of extra info for you to sip on. I also regularly update my blog with my most recent projects.
