John is an ex-financial analyst who sold up and moved to sunny Cornwall, UK, to spend more time with my kids, decide what I really wanted to so with my life and do spend some time on my passion - drawing.
 
 
 
Hi Guys and Girls, hope you like the gallery, I will try and get some more stuff on as soon as I can. Should have my Zone47 gallery up shortly as well. Well if you read my short bio, you'll know that I am an ex-financial analyst, I gave it all up last year and moved to a different part of the UK with my wife and kids. Been spending the last year, doing lots of different things, but mostly been spending time with my wife and kids, renovating my house, writing my book and started doing my drawing again after a having a big break because I was working so much. Unfortunately funds are starting to get low, so will have to get a job again soon, unless I can get somewhere with my book/art. My inspiration mostly comes staight out of my head, with some ideas coming from LoTR, Warhammer RPG, comics and sci-fi/fantasy books/films. Also just started to look at Manga style drawing. Currently working on: a book, raptorz characters (see below) and a Trading Card Game.

Welcome to the woods! You have a great start with your gallery and I hope you will post much more. And good luck with your book, art and/or job!

Hi again, John. Thanks for leaving the comment in my gallery. Something struck me after I replied to your comment... Gabriel isn't an archangel, he's a messenger. You might want to change that about your story. Michael and Lucifer were archangels, but I don't think any others are mentioned by name in the Bible...

Great work so far. Keep it up!

7 John Greaves replies: "You are indeed right about Gabriel not being refered to as an archangel in the Bible itself, however, from what I can tell from my research I think that when the 'Church fathers' if that's the right term for them decided to classify Angels and their ranks, Gabriel was put as one of the seven archangels, but as you rightly say he is not named as such in the Bible. Thanks for the interest though and as I want to keep the book as much as it is fiction, still in line with the Bible, I may change my approach to Gabriel. Cheers."

r Raptorz in the sunday comics or something! I mean, 'John Greaves' sounds like a proffesional comic artists name!

7 John Greaves replies: "Not yet! (Any offers! Anyone!) I would like to do them as a comic strip, working on some story lines at the moment, bit busy with a course I've just started. Outdoor Instuctors course, learning to teach people to kayak, rock climb and mountain leader skills, so been kinda busy, should have some new raptorz and pics soon.Thanks for your support and kind comments."
