Fatman on Batman

I am a big Kevin Smith fan. I love his movies and his podcast Fatman on Batman with Marc Bernardin. I listen every week. So in honour of the show and him moving the pod to a weekly internet video show on you tube. I figured I would do some fan art in the form of an animated intro.

A little known story is, I could draw from an early age but didn't have any real direction for it. Nor did I even think I could make a career out of it. Then one day when I was young, about 14 or 15. My mammy gave me a VHS tape of the film, "Mallrats". She heard it was about comic book guys and figured it was something I should see. I saw that film any it changed my life. This then led me to "Chasing Amy". I decided to be a comic book artist. 16 years later, I am an animator/comicbook artist/film maker. It's funny how things work out.

I guess if you know what you want, work hard at it. Then you will make money at it.

Kevin Hart

I went to Kevin Hart's "WHAT NOW TOUR?". It was hilarious. He told a story about a Raccoon and I nearly pissed myself from laughing so I did a painting of it.

Recent Work (In Trailers)

So over the past year or so I have been pretty busy working on different  Film and TV projects.

Projects are in cinemas and on TV soon. Make sure to check them out!!


Blinky Bill the Movie

Blinky Bill (voiced by Ryan Kwanten) is a little koala with a big imagination. An adventurer at heart, he dreams of leaving the little town of Green Patch and following in his missing father’s footsteps. When Blinky discovers a mysterious marker that hints at his Dad’s whereabouts, he embarks on a journey that takes him beyond the boundary of Green Patch and into the wild and dangerous Outback. He quickly makes friends with Nutsy, a zoo koala, and Jacko, a nervous frill-necked lizard. Pursued relentlessly by a vengeful Cat who has a personal score to settle with Blinky, the trio must learn to work together if they ever want to survive the rugged Australian landscape and find Blinky’s father!

Norm of the North


A polar bear of many words, Norm’s greatest gripe is simple: there is no room for tourists in the Arctic. But when a maniacal developer threatens to build luxury condos in his own backyard, Norm does what all normal polar bears would do … he heads to New York City to stop it. With a cast of ragtag lemmings at his side, Norm takes on the Big Apple, big business, and a big identity crisis to save the day. 
The film features the voices of Rob Schneider, Heather Graham, Ken Jeong, Gabriel Iglesias, Loretta Devine, Michael McElhatton, Colm Meaney and Bill Nighy.
