Hello! My name is Steven McCombe and I'm an artist living in Carlisle, England. I'm currently studying for a degree in

in Carlisle.
I've been a fan of 'Monkey' since I first saw the series in the 1970s. All the pictures in this gallery are based on this fantastic TV show and were produced in February 2003 using a mixture of traditional and computer techniques.
'Monkey' (also known as 'Monkey Magic') is a Japanese TV series made in the late 1970s by NTV. It is based on the 16th century Chinese epic 'Hsi Yu Chi' ('Journey to the West').
The story describes the journey of a young buddist priest, Tripitaka, as he makes his way from China to India to retrieve Buddist scriptures. He is escorted on his quest by three campanions: Monkey (the mischievous and fight-hungry monkey king), Pigsy (a pig monster with an eye for pretty ladies) and Sandy (a miserable water monster), who help to ward off the many demons and monsters that turn up on the way.
Over the years there has been many TV productions and films based on 'Journey to the West' but in many people's opinion (including my own) the 1970s series is the greatest. This is in someway thanks to the wonderful acting of Masaaki Sakai as Monkey, Toshiyuki Nishida as Pigsy, Masako Natsume as Tripitaka and Shiro Kishibe as Sandy.
