Hey. I’m an artist based in Manchester, UK. My work is youth focused, street driven with an eye for couture and is inspired by comics, animation and films. I believe in the power of stories, characters and alternative cultures. I earned the nickname '2hands' because I draw with both hands at once. . . I'm not ambidextrous, it's just a thing. I've worked internationally in animation, character design, comics, print, fashion, I paint live at festivals and club nights including Dpercussion, MoorFest and Hit and Run and I worked alongside Antony Wilson as the resident live artist on his final TV series 'The New Friday'. This one time I got invited to a party at The Prime Minister's house. I'm a pretty lucky guy. I grew up travelling the world on cruise ships, reading comic books, skating ledges and rails, watching bootleg anime on VHS and playing beatemups in arcades. Piano is another interest of mine and I studied martial arts for many years but injury has prevented me from training. All these things have had a profound effect on my work and life. As well as watching Gossip Girl and playing Street Fighter 4 I am currently devloping properties for comic books and the theater, collaborating on clothing lines, supporting and working within the rollerblading community with Be-Mag and One Magazine and still trying to be as stuntastic and awesome as possible.
