Hailing from Cornwall, a land rich in folklore, myth and legend, Jim draws inspiration from the epic coastline, wildlife and native people. Jim has worked with the House of Fairy Tales from the near beginnings of its realisation as a resident illustrator. Having a background in fine art, street art and live drawing, Jims imaginative approach lends itself to the narratives and playful activities, which are woven through the House of Fairy Tales programme. When not drawing, Jim enjoys skateboarding, playing guitar and a spot of ornithology.
