Meaningful Places
Shel has a passion for telling stories in memorable places, full of evocative architecture and the magic of nature.
Striking Cover Art
Shel’s work has appeared on the covers of works of fiction, anthologies, games, and more.
Memorable Characters
Shel loves to build characters out of their settings, combining period costume details with charismatic personalities.
Intriguing Creatures
Shel’s work really shines when it features animals, living, extinct or imaginary.
Haunting Monsters
Shel creates monsters with a surreal flavour, building them out of theatrical light, graphic colour, and natural structures gone subtly – or not so subtly – wrong.
