ABOUT

Hi everyone. I am a storyteller and an artist. I have worked as animator and as a production artist for advertising agencies and a major newspaper. I am now pursuing my true passion: creating children's books, specifically, Jungle Hunters stories. There are so many to tell, due to inspiration and input from my son Alexander. Almost every night, he says, "Daddy, I want a Jungle Hunters story!" or "Time for a Jungle Hunters story!" Sometimes he chants, "Jun-gle! Jun-gle!" or "JH now!"

 

I usually make these stories up at that moment as we're both lying in bed falling asleep. It's that lack of stress (or caring about the result, frankly) that has freed my mind. I'm not thinking of "the product" at the time of creation. I just want to amuse my son. The results have been fantastic. 

 

Please check out my books, my art, and my Facebook page. I would love to hear from you!
