I
currently live on the outskirts of Salisbury in the UK. I
have always harbored an interest in fantasy and mythology
as long as I can remember. of which I love to express my enthusiasum
through illustration and design.
I
have always been interested in art and used to only work in
acrylics and oils until 2005 when I was inspired by the works
of Todd Lockwood. which got me looking into the world of digital
art.
In early 2006 after playing with basic digital works, I joined
up with DeviantArt’s worldwide online galleries. Through
this I discovered the awesome Anne Stokes’ digital fantasy
art. Her work and kind, honest advice got me thinking more
seriously about becoming a professional Freelance Artist.
I then acquired my first graphics tablet in late 2006 and
have painted mainly digitally since then. My first professional
commissioned work came for the T-shirt company Spiral, through
which i have become to understand the needs of my clients
and have increased my knowledge of digital art. I have been
a fulltime Freelance artist since the start of 2008.
Such things as Dragons, vampires and the supernatural have
always held a deeper place in my heart. Its the scope they
give in creation that I love. They inspire age old stories
in which can be expressed through a painting. I love the detail
and different shapes to which you can give dragons and the
gothic atmosphere that the supernatural allow for. If you
would like to commission a painting for such a creature or
any thing else
just contact me at: Sheblackdragon@aol.com
I have done work for such companies as: Spiral, ImageCrazy,
Darkside clothing, Microcosm Games Ltd, Dreamscarred Pressand,
Triple Ace Games, Mongoose Publishing, Axe Initiative Games,
and Cubicle 7 Entertainment Ltd.
I
also can be found attending and exhibiting some of my art
works at Dragonmeet - the UK’s friendliest Roleplaying
convention, held yearly at Kensington Town Hall in London.
So feel free to drop by to say hi and check out my art display
and all that is going on at the show.
All
links to these companies and Dragonmeet can be found on my
