Brian Curtis Illustrator & Designer




	Brian began his professional career back in 1981 when he left his job as a signwriter in Docaster to paint stage sets and murals in night clubs for a growing leisure company. That company was to become First Leisure and Brian's success enabled him to travel the UK decorating many leisure venues with his works of art. In 1991 Brian left his native town and re-located his business to Bournemouth where he approached Sega Europe with ideas & designs for murals to decorate their flagship Sega Park. A successful partnership flourished and Brian's first Sonic the Hedgehog art decorated the walls in the entrance to Sega's 'Metropolis' in Hamleys toy shop, London.			Brian went on to decorate fourteen SegaPark sights across the UK and in France. 'People used to ask me back then,' recalls Brian, 'Don't you ever get sick of painting Sonic? Never! I loved every minute of it, and I thank the guys at Sega for giving me the opportunity. Brian has now hung up his airbrushes and today uses many software titles to realise his ideas but still emphasises that the most poweful packages in the world won't magically transform you into an artist. 'The fundamentals will always be important to me. Sketching characters before even touching a keyboard is where the real magic lies'.

	Maddy and I were married earlier this year aboard the Eve of St. Mawes in Cornwall. The boat is owned by Maddy's uncle, Adam Purser, who married us on the vessel at the quayside. The whole weekend was fantastic but now, back home in the New Forest where we live, it's down to work and feet on steady ground as Maddy and I develop our projects together as illustrators. If you are are interested in chartering the Eve of St. Mawes please click here for more information and to view the official web site. Don't forget to let Adam & Debbie know you heard 'All about Eve' from Brian & Maddy!
