"Timekeeper comes to town"

Ben Perkins

About me: I'm a 21-year-old illustrator from Ontario, Canada. I tend to stay up until the wee hours of the morning coming up with strange characters to draw. I've always enjoyed folklore and fantasy and that has played a huge part in the development of my work. I generally work in watercolours and inks but every once in a while I'll have a go at something else. I take inspiration from just about everything around me, but my biggest influences would probably be: Miyazaki Hayao, Toriyama Akira, Oda Eiichiro, Quentin Blake, dimly lit pubs, sea shanties, folklore and Monty Python.
