About me

My award winning illustrations for books and book covers have been widely acclaimed in the publishing world. I use a mixture of traditional drawing techniques, computer generated images and photographs blended together in Photoshop. These images are often based on my interest in folklore and mythology and are thoroughly researched. The American edition of the Sacred Circle Tarot has sold over 100,000 copies and has also been published in German, Spanish and Turkish.
