New Scientist Editorial Illustration
Concept-led illustration for magazine feature and cover

I created a series of editorial illustrations for New Scientist, including work for both a feature and cover.

The project involved translating complex ideas into clear, engaging visuals that would complement the written content while bringing their own perspective to the subject.

Conceptual Editorial Illustration

Editorial illustration often involves finding a simple way to communicate something complex or abstract.

Using hand-drawn monoline artwork, visual metaphors and carefully considered compositions, I focused on capturing the central idea without losing personality or visual interest.

The finished illustrations balance clarity with character, helping readers connect with the subject matter through a different perspective.
