this was an old image but I still like its style and is one of the most key images in the development of my work, I also remember it being the most spontaneous, I didnt plan it at all I just did it and it worked, which i think is the best sometimes once you have a feeling for an image its best to just pursue it.  Its the image that really I think was the turning point for me in the way I often compose editorial images and the elements that i often like to include in my images to balance the space.

this was a speculative image for an editorial from new scientist on a random occurance of people simply dying for no reason. The concept here being that it can happen to anyone at any time and these people all carry the potential for it to happen to them, the turnover image was a negative space of color, with a figure with a large Red cross, i will post it when i find it, the obvious thinking that he has died.
this was a speculative cover done in ink as a bookcover for the tempest

this was an image i created for an editorial on nightwalking
this was an image i created using gouache and ink, It was about inner wellbeing and feelings particularly to do with trying to create calm feelings and trying to control how you can make yourself feel

this was a speculative idea for a editorial about bacteria

unfinished



currently working on this would like to add more detail and depth to the tones of the background and overall layering on the image, as well as adding more suggestions of figurative forms into the composition.
