BarneyIbbotsonIllustration

I am a freelance illustrator and graphic artist from Manchester, England. I have over 20 years' experience, in which time I have worked for such clients as Carlsberg, Lacoste and Live Nation. Much of my illustrated work tells a story, either about a place, a person or an organisation. I relish the challenge of storytelling through graphics and always enjoy the research involved in ensuring the authenticity and accuracy of the story that I am portraying. The work is often very detailed and contains visual references that help draw the viewer in and engage with the work. I also love symmetry. Please note: All murals shown have been designed digitally and then transferred to vinyl or wallpaper. I do not undertake hand-drawn or painted murals. Please ignore my 'Price per square metre', as I do not charge by area. Unfortunately this website doesn't have a 'Not applicable' setting for this option. Projects I have worked on include: Murals for offices, festivals and public spaces; Vinyl window graphics; Editorial illustrations for magazines and reports; Album covers and band merchandise; Infographics and data visualisation; Icons and logos; Assets for animation; Beer glass design; Exhibition & event graphics; Hand-drawn doodling; Stained glass design; Presentation design; Personalised prints & birthday cards; Temporary tattoos; Graphics for clothing I work predominantly with vectors (scalable digital artwork), but also have experience with hand-drawn techniques, and I am a keen doodler.
