Mark Reeve

London, United Kingdom.

Mark Reeve has been a commercial artist for more than twenty years. His first drawing was age 5: it was a red elephant. An intensive study of Marvel Comics and Aubrey Beardsley ensued, then art college beckoned. First he attended Great Yarmouth College of Art, where he achieved the rare distinction of failing the course and obtaining a confidential report so bad that no other place would touch him.

Eventually however, he got his degree in Graphics and Illustration at Kingston Art College, since when he has produced a plethora of work. His folio comprising everything from D.C. comics, book covers, storyboards and film visuals, to animation, and political cartoons. He was political cartoonist on the Mail On Sunday for three and-a-half years and was awarded the Gillray Cup by The Political Cartoon Society in 2004. He has sculpted and drawn the heads for Spitting Image, as well as designing some sixty characters for ITV1’s satirical animated show ‘Headcases’. He is also the illustrator behind 'Carnaby Street's Great Uninvited.

He does not play golf.
