| Introduction | I'm a freelance commercial artist/illustrator,working from home. I'm married with a houseful of kids, dogs,a cat and some ducks. I like old movies, old comics and putting pencil to paper to draw stuff. I consider myself lucky, therefore, to have found something I can actually do quite well that people have been prepared to pay good money for since 1978. No early retirement for me, though - with the aforementioned commitments, I need to keep working, which is fortunate as I love my job. To that end, I try to keep my outlook fresh and my frames of reference up-to-the-minute, otherwise the artwork can start to look very old-fashioned indeed.And everyone else notices before you do - I've seen it happen. Talking of past your best - there's this wrinkled old goon who looks out at me from the mirror some days, and I'm not sure exactly who he is - but as long as he still has all his own teeth, I'll keep nodding indulgently at the old wazzuck. Once they're gone he's on his own... |
