About the Artist
Ben Naylor studied illustration at the Falmouth College Of Art and then, for reasons that still remain unclear to him, at Worthing College. After fleeing Worthing he has lived in Brighton for seventeen years and began producing self-published work in 2006. A recurring character is his alter-ego Geoff Half-Shark-Half-Octopus whilst other books are highly autobiographical featuring a slimmed down version of himself with more hair that afford him the opportunity to rant and rave about things that exasperate him such as children in pubs and other evils. Ben can most often be found drinking wine, watching movies and staring forlornly into the middle distance.
