About the Author
Illustrator Mat Edwards has been drawing for as long as he can remember. Inspired by the things he sees in daily life, his style ranges from thoroughly modern to would-have-sworn-it-was-vintage. Repetition and the power of precision are key to the appeal of his art. His early inspirations include artists such as Chris Foss, Tim White, and Rodney Mathews. Based on his work at school, he won a four-year apprenticeship with Johnson Mattheys, where he learned at the feet of some tremendously skilled artists such as mapmakers and engravers. While his talent and eye for detail is a constant, his technique has evolved from using purely traditional materials such as pencils, gouache, and stretching paper to using almost all-digital methods. He lives in the UK.
