I INK UP EVERYTHING. FROM THE SUBLIME TO THE RIDICULOUS. AND I LOVE WHAT I DO. TO BE ASKED BY A CLIENT TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR THEM MAKES ME SMILE. I GENERALLY ONLY WORK WITH THOSE WHO I LIKE...A LOT. WHAT I DO, IS NOT JUST ‘A JOB’, IT’S CREATING SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL THAT INSPIRES, INCLUDES AND ENHANCES. THERE IS A LITTLE BIT OF ME IN EVERYTHING I DO. YOU JUST NEED TO FIND IT.
I have won a few awards for the things I do, which is marvelous darling, but really I get such a kick from working with awesome people, clients and companies. There is nothing better than that, Plus the dusting of awards can be a bind.
I love to talk about what I do at conferences and events. In my personal life I rarely talk about my work. I think there needs to be a balance with being an artist some of the time and being a mate and a friend the other. I am fascinated by people and stories, I have this ability to draw out inner secrets and rarely told anecdotes. You can learn so much by listening, at times I think it’s a dying art. But that is how connections are made. Maybe that’s why I call myself a storyteller. Because I have heard so many. Which is why I like to think my work brings people together.
