Biography

A native of rural Hertfordshire, Chalk began playing wargames at the age of fifteen. He took a BA in design and worked as a teacher of art and design before going freelance.
Chalk is perhaps best known for his contributions to the Lone Wolf series of gamebooks written by Joe Dever.

These include the board game Talisman, and the first six volumes of the Redwall series of children's books. He has also drawn maps for the entire selection of Warriors books by Erin Hunter.
Chalk and Ian Bailey created the game Fantasy Warlord to compete with Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy Battle, but Fantasy Warlord did not last long.
In 2009–2010, Chalk illustrated Allan Frewin Jones' Sundered Lands books. He is also illustrating with original artworks the French edition of Mongoose Publishing's RPG. Chalk was one of the illustrators of The Secret History of Giants, by Ari Berk.
