James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger - The Boston Globe

Following James Cameron's recent exploration of the abyss in his Deepsea Challenger sub The Boston Globe were discussing the importance of further deepsea exploration

The Evolution of Snow White - Florida Times-Union

With Snow White all the rage in Hollywood at the minute, the Florida Times-Union decided to do an article discussing her rise to fame.  I was happy to be able to oblige on the illustration for it.

PR Week - What does a Digital Media Specialist Look Like?

PR Week asked me to produce an image of the stereotypical trendy "Digital" guy and then used the article to quash the idea that all Digital Media Specialists look like the fellow sat in this image and that it is, in fact, fast becoming everyone's game.

Diplomat Magazine - Infrastructure

This month’s edition of the Diplomat features this new illustration, alongside an article discussing the instability MENA (Middle-East and North Africa) and the Arab Spring will face if they don’t invest enough of their GDP into their infrastructure developments.

Diplomat Magazine - Domestic Violence

A piece about Domestic Violence is never a simple one to conjure an idea for, especially when you're style is a bit "edgy." For this piece by Baroness Scotland, about how achieving a greater balance in gender equality should in turn reduce the number of cases of domestic violence, I eventually decided, after a lot of deliberation, that this was a piece I could tackle with something off my "things-I-really-want-to-draw" list.

The Boston Globe

I was recently working on a piece for The Boston Globe's Op-Ed.  The text talked about the differences in health and safety seen by children from the US and India.  Working with the art director we completed the piece with the girl and the snake but at the last minute the writer decided to remove the piece of text the illustration was based on for fear of being offensive towards her daughters school.

The decision was therefore to go with this motorcycle piece.

Supported Housing - Inside Housing Magazine

A serious lack of updates here recently due to me moving city (I've left Manchester behind for Southsea, Hampshire) so this is the first in a series of catch up posts.

A few weeks ago I was asked to produce an illustration for Inside Housing magazine. The feature was about supported housing providers who basically offer housing to mainly disabled people, having money they would get, go directly to the tenant thus rendering them out of work and in a state of need.

Facebook - An Inflation of Effectiveness - Contagious Magazine

Contagious Magazine recently discussed whether users of Facebook were consciously avoiding adverts placed on its platform by other brands. This was wrapped in the context of the brand managers as anglers and the users as fish, with facebook as the biggest fish in the pond. This is the image I produced which accompanied the article.

Eastern Promise

Here's an image I've been sitting on for a while. It was produced for Diplomat magazine's April issue.

The corresponding article was about the problems of consumption we'll face when the fast growing Eastern countries catch up to the needs of the Western world, specifically in terms of oil.

Scholars, Come Home

I've been working with The Times Higher Education magazine again. This weeks piece was about Chinese academics choosing to work abroad causing a Chinese "Brain Drain"
