Interests & Inf0
Design and illustration is a passion of mine beyond a commercial sense, in my spare time I am a keen to develop self initiated projects to further my knowledge and experience as much as I can. I am involved in a side project called Fantastic Suburbia which is an independently published collection of Words (poems & prose) and Pictures inspired by Beat influences of the 1950's-60s; Bukowski, Selby Jr, Burroughs & Kerouac. In my spare time I also try and visit as many galleries and exhibitions as I can, I'm especially inspired by the way digital and new media has inspired a new breed of art and artists. Other interests of mine include music; record collecting and live music, sport; competitive running, and five-a-side football.
