Originally from Nottingham, I moved from there to Edinburgh in 1991 after completing my degree in graphic design at Nottingham Trent University.

After working for two of Scotland’s leading design agencies I became a
freelance illustrator in 1993.
Since then I’ve worked for many major advertising and design agencies,
magazines and newspapers, such as the following:

I’ve also had over 200 greetings card designs published.
In 2004, I began illustrating Russell T Davies’ Production Notes column in Doctor Who Magazine (a monthly diary of behind the scenes work on the series) and have been doing so ever since.

And in 2008, I started work on regular commissions for BBC Magazines’ Doctor Who Adventures comic for younger fans. For this I create illustrations for puzzles and articles, plus many icons for use in the comic and on free gifts.
