Also group exhibits in the . Numerous sell out print releases and press coverage worldwide.

I'm most at home using Photoshop having worked with it since 1996, over time I have developed several unique ways of making images, often imitated in the online arena. I will revert back to pen and pencil wherever possible, those being the foundation of my skills.
