About the art:
As a lifelong fan of Star Wars I know that many of us now have families of our own and are keen to pass on our love of these stories to the next generation, so I love to create artwork that would feel appropriate to hang in the bedroom of young children or in a family room, introducing them to characters and scenarios that celebrate the magic of Star Wars.

While as it stands there s no indication that these two characters met before they were introduced in The Mandalorian, it s plausible that they spent time together as younglings at the Jedi Academy. It was fun imagining the mischief they could have got up to together.

In my work I begin with pencil sketches, scan these and then work up flat colours before applying colour grading, light and shadows. I love the benefits of digital work but often add soft grain and use brushes that emulate traditional methods of illustration such as paint, chalk and pastels to bring some texture and character to the piece.
