As a 2D Artist at this small but vibrant studio in the heart of Canterbury I had the pleasure of working in a tight knit team on titles such as 'Captain Planet - Gaia Guardians' and the Amateur Surgeon Series. I created background, character and prop illustrations and aided in UI and graphic design tasks. The work required strict adherence to deadlines, excellent communication and an iterative process with constantly changing parameters and requirements. Not to mention a good sense of humour that could translate into the characters!

Nathalie has illustrated and designed two covers for me (middle-grade fiction) and I couldn't be happier. She has exceeded my own vision for the covers. Great artwork which will be eye-appealing for young readers to want to pick up the book.
