After a jolly Christmas/ New Year break (and er, a busy November) I have managed to upload an amazing one new image. I have started back at Swarthmore College to work on my drawing some more. So the first thing we did was a dragon (which should be on here somewhere, if i've done the magic computer stuff right).

After battling through my 'A' levels and an unsatisfying (at least artistically) stint doing my BTEC Foundation, I left art behind. I continued to keep up doing the odd bit of stuff here and there, but working life got too hectic and gradually drawing fell out of my life. I had something of an epiphany this year though after attending Auto Assembly (a Transformers convention in the UK) and spent a
