Nick Sheehy

Originally from Tasmania where he studied sculpture, Nick Sheehy re-discovered his love of drawing while living in London after travelling halfway round the globe, sparked by an interest in the city’s low brow art, illustration, street art and graffiti.

Since then he has had work featured in various publications and exhibitions, illustrated for several big name clients and spent a year as a character designer for a children's animated series.

Recognised for his imagination and attention to detail, in his current work Sheehy explores the fictional characters that often kept him company during his childhood. He currently lives in Leigh on Sea, Essex, where he continues to make work for publications, exhibitions and private clients.
