Ok so last time I updated the site was Feb!! That is super slack so for that, you have my apologies.

Well since my last update a lot of stuff has been going on, this update comes with a few more pieces of work in the portfolio section, including some new web work and a new illustration here and there.

Also having recently visited a wildlife park I have about a gazillion pictures on my camera of cute fluffy animals so when I eventually take the time to sort them out, I will upload them all as a deepzoom canvas for you all to giggle at.

But til then, go watch Star Trek and live long and prosper.
