"Old School art and proud of it!"

I'm primarily a comics artist, but also do cartooning, illustration, storyboards and have done 3D computer graphics and animation. I'm also a budding screenwriter and filmmaker.

In comics I've worked for a number of indie publishers, including Catfish Comics, A.C. Comics, Andromeda, Revisionary Press and Vortex among others.

I was writer and artist (along with Tom Nesbitt) on the official daily strip "Bob and Doug", based on the SCTV "Great White North" characters Bob and Doug McKenzie. Tom and I also did the book "Strange Brew" based on the MGM movie: "The Adventures of Bob and Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew".

I am currently doing the art for three new comic series and have inked the first issue of the Small Press Idol 2010 Winner: "Curse of the Vessel", which has just been released.

Current Residence: Canada
Favourite style of art: Sequential art
Favourite cartoon character: The Spirit
Interests
The big news is that I will be working with prolific writer Martin Powell on a graphic novel for Sequential Pulp and Dark Horse Comics called "The Monster of Frankenstein"!  Four 11-page full-colour stories will be featured and the release date will be Halloween 2012.

I should be getting the first script by the end of September!  Martin Powell is an incredible writer who has done work for DC, Moonstone and other Dark Horse titles and I'm very happy to be working with him on this project.  We're basing the look of the Monster of Frankenstein on the version created by artist Dick Briefer in the 40s and 50s, and also taking inspiration from the writings of Mary Shelley.

I'll keep you all posted on the progress of this exciting project!
