Fantastic Beasts – Nundu: A Smelly Cat
It’s moments like this that I just love my job.
I know it’s not a paid project – but it’s close enough to “work” that I can almost get away with calling it a job. This one has to be one of the most fun collaborations that I’ve had the pleasure of joining. Run by the lovely Mitchie from Mitchie’s Munchies in Las Vegas who is Potter-mad! We received invitations to it via ‘owl’, we were asked for a ‘moving-picture’ profile, to develop a new full persona and more. F.U.N.
1916 Easter Rising
Here’s my piece for the 1916 collaboration. I wanted to create something that represents the journey Ireland has taken and the men and women who brought us to where we are today.

A Nightmare of a Cake!
Here’s my Sugar Spooks collaboration piece! I wanted to depict how REAL a nightmare feels to a little girl at night. What if there really IS a monster under my bed?….
