I'm a seasoned footwear designer who dabbles in drawing, illustration, and music. Inspired by the vibrant 1980s era and fuelled by a love for films, music, sports, and iconic characters, my work is a playful homage to some of those big personalities and, along the way, small tributes to my immediate surroundings. My hand-drawn line work infuses each piece with my personality, exuding some humour, ECCENTRICITY AND FREEDOM that resonates with those who MIGHT share my quirky mindset. In the words of Mick Jagger, "If you start me up, I’ll never stop”.

In the realm of footwear design, I reached pinnacles like crafting a LUXURY sneaker for Salvatore Ferragamo whilst showcasing my creative prowess as a footwear collection builder. Armed with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art & Design, I now navigate the digital realm using Procreate while leveraging my expertise in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. Fluent in English and scrabbling around in Dutch or Italian, I am exploring avenues like original art prints, quirky greetings cards, model houses and figures and even venturing into book or Rock cover art territory.

Currently calling the Netherlands home but mentally rooted in my British upbringing, I find solace in strumming my guitar, cherishing my two feline companions, COOKING ITALIAN FOOD, taxi driving for my kids and marveling at the beauty of old architecture and nature's wonders. Infused with a deep appreciation for aesthetic surroundings, Trappist beer and miniature tin soldiers, my hope is for viewers to have an insight into my sometimes scattered thoughts and OVERALL creative RELEASES!

You might spot me next time living the life of a monk. Cheers!
