Personal Portfolio of Tom Parkes

Hello!

I'm Tom Parkes, I design and create things, take and edit photo's and enjoy anything else artistic or creative that comes my way.

I created this site to act as more of a personal workbook, and an archive of my work. I guess it also acts as a portfolio, feel free to contact me with any enquires. You can also find out more about me by clicking the arrow to the right.

Who am I?

I love having a versatile and wide range of capabilities because it keeps me motivated and interested in different ways of approaching design.

Finding time to draw

September 22nd, 2009

I have always liked to draw, but I find it very time consuming. Nowadays I prefer design, but I think drawing is a skill which can be very widely used. 

Here is a drawing I started some time ago which I recently finished. Not sure why I decided to draw Spiderman.
