As long as I can remember, I've always loved to draw. But my interest in drawing wasn't encouraged very much.

I've done a bit of teaching, but I gave it up - I felt uneasy teaching illustration to people who hadn't yet learned to draw.

Graphic novels are such a visually creative world - it's really interesting what they can do in one sketch. Now I'm hooked.

It's self-soothing for me to draw. So if I'm upset, drawing makes me less upset.

I have been drawing all my life.

When I was a kid, I never felt that what I was drawing really represented me; it was just something I enjoyed.

It became clear to me that I had to push it toward a more representational way of drawing.

I guess I didn't enjoy drawing very much. It was like homework.

I've always loved painting and drawing. I wish I'd developed it more and exhibited.
