Gravy Magazine illustration of Memphis with food, culture, and Elvis
The map of Memphis was created for Gravy Magazine, the food magazine for the Southern Foodways Alliance in the US. I was given a list of the writers top picks of eateries in the city.

Map illustration for Canal & River Trust, focusing on Sheffield canal
Map illustration for the Canal & River Trust and the Sheffield & Tinsley part of the canal. The map needed to include about 20 or so points of interest, plus icons for transport, street art and paths. Apart from that we also wanted to bring a bit of fun to the map and show all the different types of wildlife that you can possibly spot on your walk, some of the landmarks you might pass and lots of visitors enjoying the scenery.

Illustration of diverse passengers riding New York Subway Line 1
An illustration created for New York's Subway Line 1, depicting a crowded train filled with the city's most authentic faces—people of various races and professions converging at this moment. It captures one of the unique corners of New York City. The dim lighting, orange seats, swaying carriages, and enigmatic odors in the corners all contribute to the atmosphere. Oh, who knows what else might happen? I just want to reach my stop quickly.
