Chris Murray is an illustrator living in Melbourne, Australia. Originally a creature of steamy north Queensland, he migrated south to escape death by a thousand beach picture commissions. After a short bout of animation and a long recovery working in a library, he returned to his first love - the drawing board. He remains there to this day, scribbling away at tentacle monsters and painting about politics, while the newspapers stack up around him and Parliamentary Radio assists in his development of a very respectable eye-twitch.
