I was recently asked by one of my old teachers back in Secondary School to design the cover to this years yearbook. Why not? It's the least I can do for the people who gave me a first class education! I graduated 2003.
It's called the Explorer.
The reason this yearbook is particularly significant because it's the last year before the existing principal retires. Mr. C...Read more

Thank you for the birthday wishes! Nothing like turning a year older to make you look back and wonder where the time has gone.
Unfortunately, turning 24 has made me realize that I haven't accomplished nearly as much as I would have liked to by now. Got to keep hustling!

Pick up an issue of Beats this month if you're in Hong Kong! They make me sound much cooler than I actually am (which is not very, unfortunately).
Been super busy on lots of projects, including regular Time Out illos, a poster for an upcoming Havana Night, really big banners for Pure House, and a couple of super awesome projects I am not at liberty to talk about yet! If you haven't checke...Read more
Thanks to everybody who came to my opening reception!!
Unfortunately, I left my camera in my bag the whole night, so I haven't got any pictures. I also left my ipod with my playlist on it in my bag as well. I totally forgot. Again, thanks for coming!
The show is up until the 27th, so check it out if you get the chance.
Also, did someone steal my 'feed me', 'take me', and 'sign me' reception table drawings? If you did, give them back.
Just had an interview with Lifestyle Asia, the online magazine. Very cool for them to describe me as an 'explosive up and coming illustrator'!
