Anton McKay

Anton McKay studied graphic design majoring in Illustration at the Western Australian School of Art and Design from 1993 to 1995.  After graduating he began working as a freelance illustrator for various clients around Australia.  In 2005, Gestalt Comics asked Anton to contribute a story for their up-coming anthology “Character Sketches:  Trauma and Joy”.  The resulting piece, “Tiny Tragedies” was followed in 2008 by “The Ride Home” for Gestalt's next anthology “Flinch”.  Anton also provided art for Ray Fawkes' story “The Snare” in the same volume.   
 
Anton is currently working on his first graphic novel, provisionally titled “Galaxy 5”, for Gestalt Comics.
