I'll be hollerin' good news for miles around

About Me

Hello, my name is Shona and I am music junkie!
I play guitar - electric, acoustic, slide and also mandolin. Hell, I even sing bit too! I love moudly rock, folk and blues the world has never heard of, anything that makes my ears fuzzy. Music aside, I am a graphic designer, illustrator and all round artist. Currently havin' a blast terrorising the locals in Carlisle

Please check out my photos for examples of my work. All pieces have been copyrighted. I like to think that I can do pretty much anything if asked, I'll give it a bash! Anyhoo, Let me know what you think, and keep me in mind for any of your design needs, especailly if it's posters, flyers, cd sleeves for bands!

Prints of my work, if so desired, will be made available on request.

TO BANDS - PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU WANT WANT ME TO DO ARTWORK FOR YOU, OTHERWISE YOU MAY NOT BE ADDED!!!!


My Interests

Apart from the obvious sweaty, loud rock'n'roll - Ancient Civilisations, Mythology, Archaeology etc, Making a mess with paint and ink and making room for my ever growing music collection. Oh, and boycotting fast food chains.

I'd like to meet:

Any one as who claims to be as weird or weirder than me. Like these boys...
