Hello!

I am an illustrator and artist based in the UK.

I work with clients in editorial, publishing, advertising and the sciences to bring complex ideas to life.

I have a particular interest in science, deep time and human progress and often explore these themes in my work.

If you have a project that you would like to discuss then please get in touch.

Thank you for visiting.

Testimonials:

“I am always thrilled to work with Sam. He is a great collaborator and a brilliant artist. He always delivers beautiful work that is researched, accurate and on deadline.”

- Erin Otwell, Design Director at Science News


“Sam’s capacity to take quite lofty, ethereal ideas from the world of science and simmer them down into a magical yet direct concept is second to none. His style is like no other I’ve seen and he has always proved a pleasure to work with.”

- Joe Eden, Art Editor at BBC Science Focus Magazine


“Sam is an incredible talent with a unique gift that has brought the pages of New Scientist to life on many an occasion.”

- Craig Mackie, Creative Director at New Scientist Magazine


“What can be said about Sam and his work that hasn’t been said by every other art director out there?

He’s brilliant, brings complex ideas to life, is a true professional and a joy to work with. One just has to look at the unique way his art expresses so much in a single image. If you need a smart approach to an assignment, don’t look further.”

- Michael Mrak, Creative Director at Scientific American


“I had the pleasure of working with Sam on different projects over the years. He always managed to exceed my expectation, thrill us with his exceptional colour palette and his outstanding creativity. Sam is accommodating, understanding and easy to work with. He always met our deadlines too, making him one of the most reliable and a go-to artist for our team to collaborate with.”

- Mohamed Ashour, Art Director at Nature Custom Media
