David Dylon Whyte

Dylon was influenced by a creative environment since before he knew who he was. Much like his father Jack Whyte, his childhood was filled with colours, smells, textures and the experiences of being raised by a fine artist. For him, this meant discovering the innovation of art and applying it to his own life.

Captivated by chainmail in his teenage years, Dylon found a new outlet for his inventive mind. His adventure into entrepreneurial adulthood included an interest in computers and combined with his passion for chain, led him to the creation of The Art of Chainmail; an illustrated book on how to create European patterned armour. He was later contracted by Lark Books and Sterling Publishing to produce instructional books on the topic of chainmail jewellery.

Dylon eventually found interest in other mediums and through a series of experimental projects discovered an opportunity to work with the artist he grew up with.

In autumn of 2014, his father mentioned a Scrapbook that he was starting and that he could use Dylon's help with it. At the time, he hadn't imagined that the following months would become the most fulfilling experiences of his life.

Through trial and tribulation, Dylon has dedicated his time to telling his father's story and in return gained a new found appreciation for it. His efforts have given him a greater consideration of where he has come from and have helped him better understand where he would like to go.

Dylon had so much fun working together with his father that he's come to Rockethub with the goal of helping others achieve their dreams.
