MIX ’N’ MATCH
“l like this one because these things
aren’t supposed to go together,
which makes for a fun sketch. l find that
the better you can handle the finishing
style, the more believable it will
come across.”

EVIL
QUEEN
“l was looking at some Star
Wars concept work that day
and this was born. l do work for
lots of different companies and
although it seems like a ton of
different styles it’s really all the
same. A drawing is a drawing


  • it’s the focus of a certain
    piece that brings
    it to life”.
