According to his LinkedIn bio, he “still vividly recall the moment at which I realized my dream. Having just watched the movie ‘Cars’, I was fascinated by Lightning McQueen. My Mum handed me a piece of paper to draw on, and I immediately drew Lightning McQueen.”
“The overarching topic of cars would go on to become what I drew most as my skill level developed over time, leading to my fascination with Formula One, as well as other racing series, resulting in me starting to draw Formula One cars as well.”
