Hey-o there! I'm a young fellow from Cork, Ireland who loves and has always loved drawing, sketching, and doodling stuff; sometimes with paper and pencil, other times digitally, occasionally with a mix of both. I really want to become a concept artist or an illustrator (dream job, seriously!), so I'm currently working towards securing a place in an animation course. Hopefully it'll help me hone my skills some more. I periodically upload some of my scribblings here... hope you'll like them!
