Cynical

Cynic are one of my most favoured bands in the entire universe and I've been a fan for a few years, so one of them taking recognition and actually liking the drawing (let alone posting it on their Facebook.. whaaaaaat) is a pretty damn surreal. Oh teh goosebumps!

Alas, because I am so jinxed: people using the drawing without permission, finding it on profiles/forums, others claiming it as their own... although for the time being I'm just happy people like it!

Super cool and friendly guys, check them out at Wacken Festival 2008:

Salutations!

Hanging out with my super cool friend, Mary Jose,

the Ripley's Museum @ Piccadilly)

I am a freelance cartoonist and illustrator currently living in Sligo, Ireland. Inspired by cartoons of the 1990's (I blame too many late nights in front of the TV), humour, irony, avant-garde and progressive music and all things zaney.
Although I primarily focus on caricatures and portraiture, I like to dabble with other forms of media and techniques as well as some small amounts of graphic design and posters.

I studied art in Cavan Institute in the late 00's and then attended Ballyfermot College of Further Education, Dublin, where I studied illustration for two years and gained a Higher National Diploma. In the next few years I hope to continue my education to a higher level. I will then more than likely become a crazy cat woman.
​
With a traditional foundation, I then work on:
- Adobe Photoshop
- Adobe Illustrator
- openCanvas
