The Gael King is an independent feature I am a storyboard and concept artist on. I recently drew some storyboards for the next stage of filming. Here are a few of the panels!

Book Illustrations

Though I've been working on a few different projects I can't share much from them yet. So here are some drawings from my personal project, a story of mine that I'm illustrating. I posted some concepts for it back in February (see them here). I began with very loose...

I've been going along to several events at the Edinburgh International Film Festival this week. As part of the EIFF's Youth Hub events I took part in a filmmaking competition. Each entry had to be made in under a week, and include the dialogue "young and the wild" and...
