About Me

Hello! I am a illustrator, animator and cartoonist

My Interests

Have a butchers at my some of my recent animation collaborations!l!

One EskimO's 'Hometime'. Created by myself and Lucy Sullivan under the fine banner of Smuggling Peanuts, we used Flash,After FX, Photoshop and 2D drawn animation and textures!

ManJelly: Episodes 1-4. Written by Dave "pigeonpress" Thompson, I animated these in Flash with a mixture of disgust and amusement!

ColdCut: 'Just For The Kick', 2006. This was my first music promo, collaborating with Lucy Izzard and Lucy Sullivan under the collective name of Smuggling Peanuts. It's a mixture of traditional 2d animation, Photoshop, After FX and Flash blended with a river of tears and gin.

I'd like to meet:
