ABOUT ME
For the past twenty years, I have enjoyed a rich and varied career in live-action film, animation and games. Roles have included prop hand, layout artist, 2D animation assistant and line producer, and I am now thriving as an environment concept artist.
​
I love to see imagined worlds come to life, and I put my heart into every environment that I design. I equally enjoy creating props and the small details that bring authenticity to the story of the art. Nothing inspires me more than nature, and since returning to my native Scotland, I am out photographing in the wilderness as much as possible, gathering a huge reference bank in the process.
​
As well as having a passion for learning, I love to develop and support others. I mentor for Access VFX, have delivered talks on wellbeing at several studios and have given workshops and tutorials at univeristies across the UK.
