Although technically an illustrator, animator, and painter, I have always taken inspiration from the comic art form. My love of its visual storytelling and the diversity of the medium, not to mention the freedom of imagination it attracts. The comic book has informed so much of my body of work over the years.
Having attended UK comic cons for around the last 6-7 years – occasionally putting out small press comics – mostly displaying illustrations and paintings, I came to hear of the Kickstarter phenomenon. I wondered, could it be possible for me to create a project that would interest people enough to invest in?
