Pete Mckee.

Pete McKee was born in 1966. A cartoonist and illustrator from Sheffield his work holds emotion that can have you on the floor or reaching for the tissues. He ownes a small gallary in where he showcases his work in his hometown of Sheffield.
Recently he was commisioned by Warp Films, another well to do company from Sheffield, to re-create post- ers from some of their most famous films, for their 10th anniversary. Films included This is England, Dead Man's Shoes and Four Lions.

Pete’s work is heavily based on things relating to Sheffield, especially the arcutecture, the ‘hot spots’ and the music scene. His art is done in such a simple, one lined style yet he still manages to capture so much emotion in the works he produces. His work feels deadly serious, hitting home and relating to real lfe people, but also like something you might see on a childs t.v program. In Sheffield he has become a little bit of a local legend with his work being on sigt in many places including the side of buildings, but also he is becoming more and more recognised internationaly as his name is being wider spread.
