About me
I'm 39 years old, was born, and live, in Paisley in the west of Scotland. I've worked at the Greenock Telegraph for Clyde and Forth Press for around 15 years - designing adverts.
In August 2007 I got hooked on Worth1000.com and started entering their photo-manipulation contests. This helped revive some old artistic skills and I've learned a hell of a lot about Photoshop since then.
Recently I've become more and more interested in Worth1000's Illustration contests - the ones where no photo sources are used and normally the entire image is drawn from scratch.
I'm still learning new stuff every day and trying to refine techniques. I thought a website to display my progress might be interesting. and if nothing else will serve as a place for me to store all my images. I also plan to create some tutorials covering some of the techniques I've picked up, as well as some WIPs (work in progress) animations.
