MA Illustration
Over the last twenty years the discipline of illustration has undergone major changes; computers and the Internet have transformed the way that people communicate and have influenced the production of media. Illustrators consequentially have had to face these challenges both ethically and creatively. Should they leave all traditional methods of image making behind them, or remain with the tried and trusted methods of working?
MA Illustration positions itself at the centre of this debate. Many Illustrators work in both digital and traditional mediums, allowing for the combination of skills such as drawing, printmaking and three-dimensional art combined with digital processes. One issue, however, that has remained constant throughout this period of change, is the illustrator's search for a personal visual language, a unique voice to carry forward into the world of communication.

My images predominantly fall into the areas of magazine illustration and graphic novels. The current theme of my work is inspired by film, fashion, my research on Japanese mythology and the post war pop culture of Japanese art; drawing heavily from manga, anime and Japonisme.
