“It’s not movies and it’s not “fine art.” The beauty of a comic is that it’s clear, direct communication. My work is getting simpler and more cartoony because I’m much more interested in communication now than in any illustrative value.”

Leone Frollo
Leone Frollo (1931-2018) has been my numero uno favourite artist for a while. He creates work within a diverse range; erotica, sci-fi, westerns, horror and comedy.
The way he captures women is exemplary – they have a nonchalant and classy sensitivity about them that I use for inspiration.
“One of the most valuable things one of my art teachers said to me was, ‘Don’t get upset by criticism. Value the fact that at least someone noticed what you did.”
