In 1991 he went freelance, working on TV titles, commercials, pop promos, film and program content. Now has a studio in Kent where he lives with his wife and nine year old son. "My day usually revolves around the computer, producing computer graphics ranging from nuts and bolts for a fasteners company website, to flying around inside the human body for medical education video.

I like to throw caution to the wind by spreading glue and paint onto paper and just seeing what happens - such a relief from all that hard-edged 3D stuff I do to earn a crust. So buy something, or I shoot the dog."
