Various Editorial Illustrations Volume Two.
This is a small collection of editorial work I have done for various clients over the last couple of years.
Clients include Computer Arts Magazine, The Financial Times and BBC Science Focus Magazine.
Computer Arts Magazine
I worked on the March 2019 cover for Computer Arts which gave me the opportunity to create an image based around starting your own business.
They also featured a nice 'Making the cover' article which went over my process. Really good fun this one.

BBC Science Focus Magazine
Illustration for BBC Science Focus magazine. The article was titled “How to beat a cold” and revealed the best ways to tackle the sniffles.
The Financial Times.
Cover illustration and small animation for the Financial Times on Google’s plans for a digital city with a controlled climate and data gathering.
Art Direction : John Bradley
The Financial Times.
I worked on this piece for the Life and Arts section of the Financial Times entitled
" Robo-taxis or high-end tech tunnels? The race for traffic utopia."
The article was about how the next big thing with tech titans is taking on congestion, with Elon Musk at the forefront proposing a system of tunnels, and others looking into some vertical take off and landing ideas.
I created a simple animated Gif for the digital version and various crops for social media.

ALTRUISTS
'Helping others can reduce pain, researchers from Peking University have found. They found that blood donors reported less pain than those undergoing blood tests. They also found that people could hold their hands in icy water for longer if they were told it was to benefit science.'

'Lego blocks supercooled'
WHAT DID THEY DO?
A team of ultra-low temperature physicists at Lancaster University put four Lego blocks into the world’s most effective refrigerator.
WHAT DID THEY FIND?
They managed to cool the Lego blocks down to -273.13°C, which is just 1.6 millidegrees above absolute zero.
WHY DID THEY DO THAT?
Both superconductors and quantum computers need extremely low temperatures to function. This requires the use of materials that transfer heat as slowly as possible in order to maintain the low temperatures for as long as possible. It turns out that the plastic used to make Lego blocks, combined with their unique interlocking shape, fits this bill perfectly. '
