I'm a pen and ink artist from Melbourne Australia. My artworks consist of various concepts from popular culture, mythology, nature and worlds of pure imagination.

I have been drawing and creating art for as long as I can remember. I love pen and ink because of the way it crisply contrasts on paper. It has this ability to capture incredible detail and create the most amazing textures through techniques such as stippling (dotwork) and hatching (small lines and marks).

I use black fine line pigment pens and negative paper space to create detailed monochromatic artworks. I am inspired by traditional ink drawings, line work, etchings, linocut, woodblock printing, manga art and printmaking.

I produce my own prints of my original artworks, most as limited edition numbered runs. They are printed using the finest quality Epson ultra chroma inks and beautifully textured archival grade paper which is 310gsm and made of 100%
cotton.
