1 ANKALAWELA
“An illustration for the music band Ankalawela. In this image there are co-existing elements referencing New York and hip hop along with Andalusian culture.”
2 FUTURISTIC EROS
“Illustration for a two-page spread in Once Upon a Time Machine, a book containing comics and illustrations including Greek mythology characters in a sci-fi context. Published by Dark Horse.”
3 ULF THE RED
“I created this character inspired by Norse mythology. I’m interested in the romanticised idealisation of Vikings as imposing, unbeatable warriors.”
4 THE SPELL
“Spirited Away fan art. This is a tribute to Hayao Miyazaki, who has been one of my greatest sources of inspiration since I was a kid.”
