The pen is mightier...
Well, I think it might be. I have never actually tried to draw with a sword but I do try to make my illustrations cutting edge and to be cutting and edgy where I can. But you will also find a softer side, as in my children's books and rural landscapes.
I am currently writing and illustrating my own children's books and looking for a publisher. One book, Leo and the Windy Day, is available as an iPad app. See: www.leoandthewindyday.com

I have been a designer and illustrator for over three decades. Most of my work is created digitally and I am continually exploring new techniques and software.
