My Bio
I'm an Editor in book publishing and i work on lots of fantasy art titles with authors like John Howe, Gary Tonge, Finlay Cowan, Alan Lathwell, Scott Purdy, Jon Hodgson, and others... it's very cool and it's inspired me to take up fantasy art!
Only problem is - i can't draw or paint! To overcome this i will be using ArtRage and Photoshop with a wacom.. i'm good with computers and i 'get' these programs pretty well.
We'll see how i do! ;)

Hi guys,
I'm pretty psyched at work at the moment cos i'm getting to work on lots of awesome fantasy art books. Recently we finished John Howe's (of Lord of the Rings fame) latest book, Fantasy Drawing Workshop, which is a really ace book about John's sketching process, and also polished off Jon Hodgson's book Fantasy Art for Beginners. FAfB is really good because it's aimed at beginners (like me!) but also actually works - some of these books say they are for beginners but don't really work out... this one really does. BUT that's not to say the art is bad or basic, it's actually really good, really effective. I'm deffo going to start using
