THE INIMITABLE DICKENS

An Artistic Exploration of Portsmouth's Greatest Son by SPIKE ZEPHANIAH STEPHENSON

Sunday 29 July 2012

Finally ready to put the work up; as the man in the white waistcoat once said,
"that boy will be hung"

Spike Zephaniah Stephenson: Portsmouth, Hampshire, United Kingdom; Whilst I would consider myself an illustrator first and foremost, my work crosses into all manner of practices, such as writing, filmmaking, puppetry and graphic design. Though the contexts may vary massively, my key interests remain consistent throughout my work. Characterisation, both visually and otherwise, always plays a key role, particularly of faces, and most of my work uses some form of narrative. My work tends to carry a macabre feel, but is often peppered with comedic touches. I have just finished my illustration degree and am now looking to enter the graphic novel industry with a view to potentially working in film.
