After graduating high school, Rupert went on to study 3D games art and design at the University of Hertfordshire. Using the skills learnt on the course he then went and did 3D advertising for the music industry, making packshots and animated unboxing videos. His illustration gained popularity after being commissioned to work on John Lodges album ‘10,000 Light Years Ago’, more work followed including work on Mike Oldfield’s newest album ‘Return to Ommadawn’. Rupert works in various illustration styles from figurative line art to complex fantasy scenarios depending on the brief.
Rupert currently lives in St. Albans, England. His interests include baking, playing several instruments and gaming. He also likes spending his time bouldering, learning aerial silks and combing the knots out of his flame tip ragdoll cat Blofeld.
