This spring I was asked to create a Key Visual for Red Bull’s ELEVATE event - a new format, touch Rugby invitational event, put together by rugby legends Jack Knowell, and Henry Slade along with their sports brand 1314

Annihilation – Set in a Florida nature reserve where a meteor has crashed causing unexplainable phenomenon, Natalie Portman heads up the stellar cast who go on a mission of discovery into Area X, only to find that nothing is as they know or expect beyond the mysterious Shimmer.
Director Alex Garland’s beautifully haunting take on Jeff VanderMeer’s first installment of The Southern Reach Trilogy by the same name. I wanted to create a piece of art that brought together all the parts of the incredibly detailed natural environment from the movie and bring the feeling of turbulent, ever-changing unease that runs through it.
Series 5 of Peaky Blinders illustration, the Rise and rise of Tommy Shelby. It brings together many themes from the show from the romany caravan styling to the WWI medal of honour that he threw in the cut upon his return from France. It’s a peek into the things that made Tommy who he is and a reflection of his troubles and the ghosts that haunt him.
Who doesn’t love Red Bull sports? As a keen mountain bike trail rider I really enjoy all the media they put out and none more so than the Red Bull Hardline mountain bike event.
The digest requested that for their issue centred around the liver, I created a cover that played on Silence of the Lambs’ themes which also paired the liver with alcohol in a fine chianti!

An alternative poster for Naruto: Road to Ninja. Focussed on fan favourite Kakashi and inspired by the original Manga and the classic Japanese woodblock print stylings of one of my all time favourite artists Hiroshi Yoshida. Kakashi Hatake is about to unleash his signature Jutsu - Chidori or in Kakashi’s case the Lightning Cutter.
This illustration for Bleacher Report’s coverage of the 2019 NFL playoff match between the Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens, highlighting their star players Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson. There was a lot of hype before the match and so the client really wanted to play off the super hero status of Henry and Jackson, who had both been playing at top form. So with this illustration I wanted to get across Henry’s devastating running abilities, he is literally unstoppable!
My illustration for Danny Schlitz’s Star Wars Impressions month on the run up to Episode 9 - The Rise of Skywalker. Each day a different selected artist depicts a scene from the film, from a new point of view rather than that seen by the movie goer. Mine was the bit of the film where Han and Luke dupe two storm troopers onto the captured Millenium Falcon, in order take their uniforms and rescue Princess Leia.
My favourite musicians of all time, with their irreverent style, serious musicality and fun rhymes, they’ve always had me nodding my head and bouncing around. They knew the importance of the visual along with the audio, pairing their awesome music with crazy and exciting videos and imagery. This is only part 1, the plan is to illustrate all three MCs face on and make a fun spinning image of the NYC LEGENDS - The namesakes to my website!

This is an illustration I’ve had in my mind for years – The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Being both a book and a movie, and a movie again it is a story that has been imagined and re-imagined so many times. I wanted to do my take on it, so whilst based on Rooney Mara’s Lisbeth, I wanted to take it further and create a new version of her with my style.
Check out some details below and if you’d like to see a video of the tattoo check out my instagram here
