Luke Pickett was born in Melbourne, Australia. Luke attended RMIT art school to study painting which destroyed the romantic illusions of making fine art as a career, and lead to an undying, everlasting (one might almost say obsessive) love of comics. He continues to forge his own destiny in the face of all obstacles, and also sometimes draws pretty pictures. If you ask nicely he will also create websites and other multimedia productions for select auspicious individuals.
