About Tiras

A Storyteller's Tale

Dragons, tarot cards and a wealth of magical creatures and places, are where my journey through the artistic practice has led me thus far. However, they offer only a small insight into the stories I have created them for, or am still in the process of writing and illustrating.

Each of my works has been inspired by stories, and contributes to the creation of a narrative on a much broader scheme. 

So whether it's concept art, book illustrations, or tarot cards, even web art, visual assets and icon/logo designs, each of these things has its own tale to tell. Hence I find the term 'visual storyteller' a touch more appropriate.

A little more info..

I studied Illustration BA at the Arts University Bournemouth, and then went on to achieve a distinction in Graphic Storytelling MA. For my final major project I produced two short graphic novels, 'The Curse of Mordred' and 'Mordred; Bastard Son', for which I received an 'Artist of the Year' award. 

In 2019 I was fortunate enough to take on a short concept art course, which was led by my key inspiration, John Howe (concept artist for the Lord of the Rings films).

​

Throughout my work as an artist, I have produced illustrations for books, full book cover designs, concept art for films, movie posters, character and creature designs, environmental paintings, logos and brand designs and pencil portraits. 

​

Some more notable work includes a full deck of oracle cards (Dragon Path) written by Caroline Mitchell, which have since been published by Watkins.
