Bio
Hi, I’m a freelance illustrator and designer based in Melbourne, Australia. After working in the corporate design industry for 8 years I finally took the plunge, fled the cubicle and started freelancing full-time at the start of 2012.
Although I’m a professional graphic designer, my real passion has always been illustration and cartooning. So much so, that while working as a designer, I moonlighted as a cartoonist in my spare time and had over 400 comic strips published.
These were mostly in the form of my two long-running comic strips, Dan and Pete and Boys Will Be Boys, which ran in two different newspapers from 2006-2011.
Besides the comic strips my other illustrations have been featured in major Australian publications including The Sunday Times, Herald Sun and Daily Telegraph, as well as in magazines and calendars.
My latest online comic project is Zen Pencils, a blog where inspirational quotes are adapted into comic strips.
