Arttoon

From Lens to Line From Lens to Line brings together several different sides of my creative world — photography, fine art and illustration. While much of the exhibition focuses on my palette knife paintings and photography, illustration has always been an important part of what I do. Under my Arttoon name, I create illustrations that are often fun, colourful, quirky and sometimes a little bit different. From cartoons and caricatures to fan art, characters and completely origin

It has been a fantastic few weeks on the road, taking my artwork, prints, books and live drawing to three very different events across Scotland. First came Kirkcaldy Comic Con, followed by Dundee Comic Con, and then I headed back home to East Kilbride for Blackheart Market. Three events, three very different audiences and three completely different atmospheres – but all three were great experiences. I've also been introducing new artwork at each event, adding more characters

This book is something very personal to me because it brings together a side of my artwork that has always been about one thing above all else — making art fun, accessible and full of personality.

Art has always been more than paint on a canvas to me. It has been a way of telling stories, capturing moments, and sometimes simply making people smile. Somewhere along that creative journey, Arttoons were born.

It's been a busy end to the week preparing for the first big Comic Con of 2023 and I've created 2 NEW Paintings inspired by The Last of Us. These 2 pictures will be available to buy at the Event or you can buy from my Website and delivery is free in Scotland. For future Events I will be allowing Customers to Reserve their Art and then collect on the Day.

January is such a difficult month and its great the guys from Caricature Resolution keep all us Artists going during the month. I've finished the challenge early and feel really chuffed but the pictures haven't be made public yet so you guys a re getting a sneak peek of all the Cartoons and Caricatures together!

Caricature Resolution is such an important Event each year and has Caricature Artists from all around the World drawing 31 Faces each day in January. The Event is almost finished for this year and here is the Cartoons and Caricatures I have drawn so far.
