Andrew aka Drewscape enjoys drawing and inventing stories as a means of bringing to life stories in his dreamy head. Formally an advertising art director, he now does most of his work for advertising agencies as a full-time illustrator. His day job consists of doing commercial illustration and storyboard visuals. When he is not working, he enjoys working on his own comics and perhaps more picture books in the future. His favourite mediums at present are pencil, ink and watercolour and some photoshop to add the finishing touches. Most of his art education is self taught by learning from art books and comics. Among his favourte artists at present are Ashley Wood, Yoshitaka Amano, Aya Takano, Kent Williams, Lisbeth Zwerger, James Jean and the list goes on.

A couple portraits that didn't sell at oic portrait day. But they are put through some photoshop magic here. But I do not do commissioned portraits as part of my job because it's too much pressure to get it right and make them look prettier, especially with natural mediums.
