I have been working in the animation industry for more than 30 years as a Concept Artist, Location Designer and Art director, and probably best defined as a skilled generalist.

My favourite part in any new assignment is the puzzle solving at the beginning, and I believe it is a key skill I can bring to a project. I am often asked to assist established teams in identifying problems and to develop time and cost effective solutions.

I mainly work remotely from my home office in West Sussex, but I have also worked extensively on-site in the UK, EU and overseas. I can help run a team in either scenario, and am experienced in setting up an efficient and reliable pipeline. Where needed, I can design and build 3D assets, to assist storyboard and layout to speed up delivery. 

My work frequently involves launching projects, for which I design pitch pack material with finished artwork for locations and characters. Some of these I have later helped in pre-production and production. 

I always seek to adapt to the project, to offer more than first expected of me. I like that I am considered a generalist, flexible in style and choice of media, which allows me to crossover into other genres.
