Who is this Eelus bloke and what’s this blog about? In October 2006 I quit my day job and became a graphic artist full time, putting myself on a long road of experimentation, progression, hangovers and worrying about the rent. My goal is to push my limits, learn the skills and hopefully make a living from my art for as long as possible. This blog is here to document that journey through good and bad and give you an honest peek at the behind the scenes going on of my life and work. If eelus.com is the ‘Feature Presentation’, then Freak Show is the Bonus Disk, the oddities, rarities and general oddness that fills the inside of my mind and my day to day goings on.
I’ll try my best to update this blog as often as I can with everything from sketchbook pages, photos, videos, comic strips, interviews, film reviews, ufo sightings and whatever else seems like a good idea at the time. What’s that you say? You can’t be arsed with yet another overly self-indulgent blog?! I don’t blame you! But for those sorry souls who do buy my work and who are interested, then this site will give you a look at how my work starts and develops as well as where my ideas come from and everything in my life that inspires me to do what I do.
As always, keep it eel.
Mr E.
