He was born in Kent, and began drawing at a very young age, and illustrated a lot of his old school's magazines, as well as some of his early work being featured in a magazine called 'punch'. He studied art at Chelsea Art school, as a part time student. He did not study at this institute to become an illustrator, but he did study there to learn more about art itself.
