I was born in 76' and realised very early on that my drawing skills were superior to my contemporaries. Album covers by artists like Roger Dean became my earliest influence, using felt tips and cheap pencils that I was given. This understanding of graphic art and design developed until, at the age of 13, I stopped drawing on paper and started drawing on walls! With a disappointing GCSE grade in Art and a shabby portfolio I scraped into Peterborough Regional College on their Graphic and Interior Design Course. With rather low expectations I nonetheless passed with a Distinction and left full time education.
On leaving College I got a job designing and making posters for a book shop, which I did for six years. In a moment of frustration I resigned as a Graphic Designer & took a job as a Data Analyst for the money. I then bought a house, got married, became a father and a 'nine to fiver'.
Several years on, the compulsion to design, to create, to paint is persistent and I've now been working on my portfolio for over a year.
