I am currently working as a User Interface Artist at Lightning Fish Games, Designing and Creating Art Assest while utilising the latest next generation technology such as the Kinect, PS Move and Wii Motion Plus.

I Graduated from the University of Derby, and completed my study in BA (Hons) Computer Games Modelling and Animation. Throughout this time I gained the essential knowledge needed to create a vast variety of 2D and 3D art assets.

I have had a long artistic background from a very young age, and have always had a passion for both 2D and 3D art. The idea of mixing these two disciplines is a very exciting prospect to me. I have studied many creative mediums throughout my educational career such as Graphic Design, Illustration, 3D Modelling and Animation. I believe all these disciplines have improved my abilities as an original thinker, and with combining technology and art. I also enjoy other traditional forms of art, which I exercise through life drawing classes and concept art.

While attending my University course, I enhanced my range of skills and abilities. These include extensive knowledge with 2D software such as Photoshop, Illustrator etc, and 3D software programs such as Maya, whereby I have experience in using various modeling techniques such as Texturing, Lighting, Rendering, Rigging and Animating.
