Starting my profile

Words that define me; creative handyman, Leeds based, creative, illustrator, passionate, contemporary, happy, upbeat, hardworking, versatile, responsible

Practitioner of kindness, drawer of things and petter of dogs. Passionate and upbeat illustrator based in Leeds with a developed interest in analogue methods of image making. Versatile and able to work well under pressure.

Feels a bit vague and slightly awkward at the minute? May be worth looking at my pre-existing online presence and seeing what can be drawn from that?
