Years.

1. Alphonse Mucha: A recent but major influence on my work.

2. Manga/Anime: influenced me from about the age of 10. Manga like Fairy Tail (pictured above), Bleach, Soul Eater, FMA, Haibane Renmai, Serial Experiments Laine have all inspired me heavily.

3. Disney: for the fluidity of the characters' movements and the way they capture expression.

4. Nature: espeically the sea.

5. The Flower Fairy Collection, by Cicely Mary Barker: always a major inspiration for me.

6. Final Fantasy concept art: and the games in general. In fact, most game concept art. But when I got the FF8 walkthrough aged 9 and saw those pictures my jaw hit the floor. I didn't even realise people could DRAW like that!

7. Peter Weevers: more specifically, his watercolour illustrations of my edition of Alice's Adventures In Wonderland. Beautiful stuff and rarely achknowledged.

8. Formly . Now . She doesn't frequent on here so much anymore but her stuff was a massive influence on me a few years back, even though she's taken it all down now.

9. Lara Croft: was the reason I started drawing, back when I was 7. I totally loved her.

10. Tattoo Art: is a huge influence on me nowadays. The good stuff, I mean, not tramp stamps etc.

I left out a big one: Fashion Photography. Massive inspiration for me.

Of course, it's impossible to list EVERYTHING that's influenced me over the years, but I guess these are the important ones.
