Shaun Casey is from Leeds, the Hyde Park Headingley area, he went to the Leeds Metropolitan University where he gained my BA ( Hons) degree in graphic arts and design,  majoring in illustration,  He’s always had an interest in drawing but never pursued in his younger years due to helping  bring up a young family. In  2011 he spent some of his spare time drawing the exhibits at the Royal Armouries in Leeds where his work was spotted by staff and an exhibition of his work at the Armouries ensued.
This gave his confidence a lift and although it was stop start regarding drawing again, he picked up the pen once more in 2019 and started drawing animals in fine liner ink, he liked the control of the pen and the deep dark textures of the ink and before he knew it he started illustrating a book on WW1,  he have completed 62 A3 ink drawings on this his wife Lesley-Jane writing the back stories.
They are hoping to publish the book later this year, he hopes all that see my work will find it aesthetically pleasing, he’s never really thought of myself as an artist but a craftsman with a pen.
