Baz the Introvert

About me. By me.

My name is Barry and I am an illustrator. My friends call me Baz. I don’t have any enemies, so I don’t know what they’d call me... they’d probably call me The Mysterious Hernandez or something...

I’ve drawn nonsense as long as I remember; from wibbly splodge monsters on the kitchen wall to superhero tortoises in school. Wherever there was a pencil you’d find me creating some unspeakable nonsense, usually involving goldfish, explosions, llamas, and the occasional pineapple. I turned my hand to street art for a bit, making stickers and stencils and as far as I know I’m not Banksy... or am I...

After several years of making no money out it as an amateur I decided to try my hand at making no money out of it as professional.

Since turning ‘pro’ I’ve illustrated two children’s picture books with the legendary Nick Jackson from Powerpack; The Right Man and Personal Best which you can buy here and have a sneak at here.
