I love a brief - any brief. While much of my editorial work focuses on politics and current affairs, I am a versatile artist and designer comfortable with a wide range of formats, media and subjects. Here are recent commissions I have undertaken, from a magazine cover to a business logo, to web graphics and a bespoke lino cut. Contact me if you'd like to discuss your project.
eSharp magazine cover, 2020
Winning entry for a competition by University of Glasgow publication eSharp, to create an artistic response to the word 'Estrangement,' for use on the cover of one edition.
The idea of combining a simplified brain/maze motif with a red cross came from the client, but as a designer I was able to realise it as a professional logo in a range of formats for use on print and digital platforms.
'Ayrshire Fields'
A personal commission for a lino print of a typical Ayrshire landscape, to be given as a present.
I welcome personal commissions, and can offer digital and hand-made outcomes to suit any budget.
A digital asset for the landing page of the Scottish Left Review website. The brief was for a versatile graphic which would work across different platforms and screen views, and would underscore the tagline: Radical Scottish Political Writing
