Edwin Morgan Poem Illustration - In The Snack Bar

Here's the outcome of a recent commission by an old school friend to illustrate an image based on the poignant Edwin Morgan poem 'In The Snack Bar'.  I like the bald guy in the background, happily chewing on a burger.

The poem itself is below...

A Bigger Canvas - Parasites Exhibition and Banner in Glasgow

Last year I was commissioned to produce an exhibition and a banner for the Wellcome Trust Centre For Molecular Parasitology in Glasgow.  It was an amazing challenge, boiling down some very complex science into digestible, family friendly information.  Working with my collaborators Jamie Hall and Kat Lloyd, we pulled together the exhibition, which was on show at the Glasgow Science Centre throughout the Autumn of 2011.

It was really interesting working at this very different scale, and having to take account for the very specific benefits and drawbacks of the medium.

And below is a photo of the banner I designed for them in place at Glasgow University. It's pretty cool seeing something I illustrated is the size of a building!
