I am in my 30th year!
My family say I'm a dreamer. I was always one of those kids who would stare into space in school, dreaming of being somewhere else; up a mountain fighting dragons or simply at home playing with my G.I. Joes and eating Wagon Wheels. I would long to get to art class and get my hands stuck into clay, sculpting monsters and all sorts of weird creatures. I absolutely loved it and growing up I moved onto study Prosthetic make-up, unfortunately I found the course weak and lost interest in the subject. Music came into my life in a big way when I was 17. I was introduced to Radiohead by a friend and have been singing and writing in bands ever since. My longest was with a rock band called My Echo where we played great venues such as The Camden barfly, Underworld, Sheperd's Bush Empire and many more. Now I am writing with the same friend from when I was 17 in a new project which currently has no name..
Art still plays a major role in my life, I still do as much as can, though mainly specializing in my own take on illustration, however I am also looking into making more sculptures using found objects.
My other project is website called *.
The site is a hub for insight, advice and inspiration for those looking to succeed in all areas of the creative industry.
We supply this by interviewing and promoting creative professionals. The interview asks questions about their past, what it took to get to the stage of their career that they are now at, and their thoughts on what it takes to be successful today.
I will update this portfolio as often as possible with any new work I have.
If you like my style and would like to request a commission, or purchase any prints, feel free to contact me.
Thanks,
Henry
