Since childhood I’ve always loved black and white pen work more than any other form of illustration, and when I embarked upon the portfolio of images for We Were Wolves I consciously attempted to pay homage to the many illustrators who inspired me in my career, from Charles Keeping to Maurice Sendak and Tove Jansson, and including comic illustrators I adored in my youth, such as Brian Bolland, Mike McMahon, Carlos Esquerra and Dave Gibbons.
