Hello..
Hi, I’m Bugsy (real name Mark), an illustrator and small artist from Melbourne, Derbyshire, UK.
Believe it or not, I only started drawing during COVID. Before then, the best I could manage were stickmen, and I’d never really thought of myself as “creative.” Like many people, I was looking for something to pass the time and keep my mind busy, so I picked up a pen and started doodling. What began as a little lockdown distraction quickly grew into a passion, and before long I found myself sketching every single day.
Over time, those stickmen turned into colourful illustrations, playful cartoons, and experiments with different styles. I fell in love with the process of bringing ideas to life, and with every drawing, I pushed myself to try something new. It’s been an incredible journey going from someone who thought they “couldn’t draw” to becoming an artist who now shares their work with the world.
