I'm offering
I am an enthusiastic illustrator who loves capturing, funny, quirky and crazy ideas and images in a clean, colourful style. I specialise in cartoons, caricatures, rich-content Where’s Waldo type illustrations and isometric vector art. People admire my professionalism, contentiousness and reliability.
I worked in advertising and design for 15 years before going out on buy own in 2000. Never looked back. Often wonder why I didn’t become my own boss 10 years earlier! :D
