The design work shown here has mainly been drawn in Photoshop with the exception of rough sketches at the planning stage. The majority of this work involves a lot of illustration.

Many modern designers sadly do not draw much, or even very well, and rely heavily on the computer.

My drawing skills mean that I have more to offer as a designer. I have found my drawing skills enable me to produce varied and individual work in any number of styles.
