About
I am a 24 year old freelance Illustrator based in Melbourne, Australia. My art is mostly of the macabre and romanticism genre. I have a great love for the natural world and old-fashioned things. Videogames, nature and music are the three things that inspire me most. The Oddworld and Half-life games were my art’s lifeblood when I was a child and their influences still carry with me.
I feel that my mission as an artist is to successfully convey beauty in conventionally ugly and odd things. The standard of what is attractive in today’s world I find unrealistic and boring. I want to inspire my viewers to see beyond that, to look deeper than what’s immediately visible, to question everything.
These people inspire me the most:
Stephen King, Steven Morrissey (of “The Smiths”), Wolfgang Gartner and Ejay/ Facerot (Artist)
