I am an artist from the UK working recently on themes from fantasy and myth. I work from initial pencil sketches and build layered watercolour and ink paintings. Below are some of my pieces, from sketches to finished works. I hope you enjoy looking at my recent portfolio as much as I enjoyed creating it.

#1 The Offering
I've never really considered Medusa as a horrible monster, as furious at the injustice of her punishment. She got a rotten deal from the gods (Athene is basically the worst) when she was a young woman.

The labyrinth is a horrible concept, where no matter the choices you make, the outcome is the same.
