Professional award-winning Illustrator with 20 years' experience teaching conceptual illustration and art portfolio preparation online and in Brighton

As the Art Director for Westways and AAA Explorer magazines, I've had the pleasure of working with Neil for several years on a variety of editorial illustration assignments. He's one of the strongest conceptual illustrators I've worked with. He approaches each project thoughtfully, exploring multiple creative directions before identifying the solution that best communicates the story. He has a remarkable ability to take complex or technical subjects and translate them into clear, engaging illustrations that make ideas more accessible to readers.

Just as importantly, he's an exceptional collaborator. He leaves his ego at the door, welcomes feedback, and works through revisions with professionalism and a genuine desire to make the final piece as strong as possible. He's creative, dependable, and a pleasure to work with.

I have worked with Neil for more than 10 years - I commission cover art from him on topical legal subjects for PLC Magazine. Neil is a fantastic illustrator and has imaginative and clever ideas for our illustrations. He responds to enquiries promptly, clearly, has great communication and has always met our deadlines. I have no hesitation at all in recommending Neil both for his excellent art work as well as his easy manner and efficiency.

I have worked with Neil for over 15 years managing usage rights to his existing illustrations. Neil has the ability to summarize complex concepts into an illustration that draws in viewers. We have sold hundreds of his images to clients worldwide who value his professionalism. - John

I have known Neil professionally as an illustrator for over a decade. He's an intelligent, witty, and reliable creative. He never lets me down when commissioned for a tricky and often sensitive brief, and I imagine he can pass on a lot of relevant and professional knowledge to young creators. I hope he doesn't get too busy to be unavailable for further commissions from myself.

I have represented Neil regarding his illustration practice for around 30 years. His work attracts commissions from high profile clients worldwide and his work invariably pleases clients. He is highly professional to work with and highly experienced. He is a joy to represent and has many clients who commission him repeatedly.
