“The power of the freehand illustration is that it can seductively capture the spirit or
atmosphere of the place…”
At different stages of a project, a drawing can convey the overall design concept or a single detail in an enticing way. My love
of architectural drawing has matured over 3 decades and when faced with a new commission, I adapt my style to suit the specific needs of a particular presentation. On the following pages are a varied range of my work – bespoke illustrations tailored to individual requirements.
I started making fiction film in 2008 after a film course at Morley College, London and developed this activity into a part-time professional practice. I moved to documentary in Winchester with several short films which gathered community interest, helped develop a network and generated some commissions.
I am confident in all aspects of the video process, from writing / storyboarding, to directing, filming and editing.
Clients include: Hampshire Archives Trust, Hampshire Cultural Trust, Naomi House and Jacksplace.
