# About me
My artwork are hand-drawn original pieces of some of my favourite film and game characters. Created using graphite (and in some cases coloured) pencils on heavy weight paper, these images are unique and are highly valuable due to the time and effort put into them.I use graphite pencils to create intense chiaroscuro (use of strong contrasts between light and dark) which adds a sense of volume and realism to my images.
I add subtle hints of colour to my images to highlight areas of characteristic where necessary.
I have a BA joint honours in Maths and Fine art, and my day job is teaching Maths to Art learners in the FE sector (College)

Thank you! That one was a lot of fun!
All the latest paintings I've uploaded are digital, yes! If you have a look at my gallery I divided it into digital art, traditional art and photography.
Your works are pretty impressive as well! My internet is really slow right now so I only had a short glimpse. >.<
