If today were Thursday, this would be a #throwbackThursday post. This is me drawing in my old style. I stopped as got so much grief for it after I graduated Uni and started job searching, as it still looks like I'm influenced by manga (which I was for quite a while). It's fun to draw like this again- I fancy incorporating it back into my style. Does anyone want to see any of my old work in this style? #illustration #instaart #instaartist

Look who I met in London today! At one job I had my colleagues nicknamed me #Pikachu because they couldn't pronounce Piechocki 😂 When I was younger #Pokemon was one of the only animes we could get on British TV 😺

I've been out at the new #westgatecentre in Oxford doing some alfresco painting in the natural light, and this was my view from Pret's new window. Happy new opening @Aveda Oxford ⭐️ #westgatecentreoxford #digitalpainting #aveda #avedaoxford

Working on a #digitalpainting again. This guy is actually the protagonist of one of my novels. His name is Rheam and he's an Army Commander of a galactic army out on a space colony in the future. He's currently a deserter in hiding on Earth 🌏 . He's a man of few words and can be exceptionally grumpy. He identifies as bisexual, and had a difficult relationship with a younger Lieutenant in his command called Trystan. Their relationship is currently set as inappropriate and complicated while Trystan is directly reporting to him. #bf #Rheam #painting #instaart #instaartist

OMG! Right guys, this is actually 3 years old, and I lost it before I could finish it because I gave it a STUPIDLY GENERIC file name. I'm going to finish it!! 🙌💥. #painting #unfinishedbusiness
