Description I have long had a fascination with Martial Arts, and find a particular allure to the sets or categories therein, such as the various styles, the elements, the animals the styles are based on...Therefore I felt compelled to tribute these interests through my art.I made a whole set of the 12 Asian Zodiac animals.Each animal is posed in a martial arts style that represents them.Where I could find no style based a certain animal, I would choose a stance I felt would fit their visage.And they wear garments and represent their elements as referred to in myth.Here I have illustrated the Tiger

Artist Statement I am a South African Graphic Designer, Storyboard Artist and Illustrator with experience in both corporate and freelancer careers, working on projects for Disney UK, Wish Films, Cookie Jar, Reel Rock GSW, Clockwork Zoo and Bubblegum ED. I aim to create beautiful, eye-catching art and to bring character and a unique flavor to every project I work on. I pay great attention to detail and believe that every aspect of each piece, whether it be the layout, the colour, the text style, or the accompanying illustration, should tell a story to which the idea that needs to be represented is its moral. I am extremely versatile and can illustrate in vastly different styles.
