One of the very first cell-shaded style illustrations I created as splash page after buying the domain name Paper Raincoat. Emma Cake at Advanced Photoshop Magazine asked if I’d like to turn it into a four page digital painting tutorial. It also ended up being the first piece that I ran a batch of prints from.

I’m often asked, usually on Instagram how I arrived at my particular drawing style. It’s a combination of Marvel comics, Saturday morning cartoons, my favorite anime (Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop) and a handful of other artist influences/inspirations.
