I am a moderately happy, moderately starving art student studying for a BA Hons Illustration Degree.
I am a fantasy-based illustrator, with dellusions of becoming a famous book/story illustrator. For now, i'd settle for making people happy with my work - and maybe even making enough money to eat.
Despite much disagreement from peers, i don't think i have found my 'style' yet - i am an artistic chameleon, adjusting to whatever style seems most appropriate at the time.
I also love photography, and dabble away to my heart's content, but i don't take it too seriously.

I'm yet to get a boyfriend - i'm that sad, yep - and i've never been kissed. I'm a big believer in good old-fashioned romance, and perhaps am too enthused by Disney. As a result i still am holding on to the dream of the perfect 'First Kiss'. I need to wake up, i think.

At 21, i am scared as proverbial s**t about the future and what it holds, but i'm trying to take life a little less seriously, trying to lighten up and stress less. I try not to lose my temper, and i try not to bite my nails.

I have a mum, dad, sister and dog who mean the world to me and without whom i honestly couldn't live. They are my foundation, and my inspiration.

That's about it, really. Make of this what you will and enjoy my gallery. Please visit my other online gallery, at Elfwood, for more personal work and my Tumblr for uni work.
