EDITORIAL ILLUSTRATION

I am continually growing as an artist but also as a conscious entity on this planet; embracing curiosity and educating myself on a variety of topics, with health, science and nature being ever present, as some of my many ongoing topics of interest.  I decided to set myself some creative briefs in response to articles or documentaries that have opened up my thirst and desire to acquire further knowledge through research.


Here are a collection of published and self initiated creative briefs for re-imagined covers/editorials, to give a sense for my visual language and ability to succinctly interpret a brief using my artistic voice and use of visual langauge.

NEW YORK TIMES

The women who clear landmines

This was my conceptual interpretation of a powerful article titled 'Making our home safe again: meet the women that clear landmines' January 2021, The Guardian.


After decades of war, more and more women are working to remove lethal mines and IEDs from the fields and cities of their homelands. It’s dangerous, but it’s helping to rebuild their lives.

Genomic Medicine White Bias Layers Fade.

NEW SCIENTIST

Genomic medicine white bias

Fascinated with science and medicine, and having a vetted interest in genomic medicine due to my own underlying health issues, I wanted to create my own visual interpretation of the article titled 'Genomic medicine is deeply biased towards white people' that featured in New Scientist January 2021.

​

I like to depict powerful messages by reducing thingd down to their essential form and invite the viewer to interpret my artistic voice.
