The counterpart to the old College of Building and Printing - The College of Commerce (Charles Oakley Building). Part of my work is to illustrate demolished or derelict buildings in their prime, rather than their dilapidated state. Buildings we should cherish and not abandon. #brutalglasgow

Brutal Glasgow sketches continue! Loving drawing ‘on the wonk’ at the moment 🤘 #brutalglasgow #brutalism #glasgow
Some building icons for an upcoming Brutal Glasgow map. Exciting to work on abstracting some well known Glasgow landmarks. Taking inspiration from mid century illustration for this one. Can you guess all of them? Bonus points for all four! #brutalglasgow #nebopeklo #brutalism #glasgow
Scottish Design Exchange have moved from Buchanan Galleries to Sauchiehall street. The new shop is at the corner of Sauchiehall Street and Rose Street. Just down from the GFT and across the road from Assai Records. The perfect spot! So big and bright! ✨

A recent commission for the old Strathclyde Uni Student Union building which is currently being renovated. I always try to draw buildings in their prime rather than their current state.
It’s the 60th anniversary of Glasgow Airport and I’ve illustrated the original design by Basil Spence. Completed in 1966 with distinctive concrete arches which can still be seen from the interior of the current airport. Have a look up at the roof the next time you’re checking in ✈️
A recent illustration of a building where is spent a lot of my time in my youth. Pints of diesel and level 8. Hard to pick a song for this upload as my memories are of the Wonder Stuff and James which I can’t bear to listen to now 😬. Thank god there weren’t any camera phones then 🤣
I’ve moved! I’ve set up a bigger space in the Scottish Design Exchange in Buchanan Galleries More Glasgow illustrated maps, more architecture prints and more tea towels. I’ll be restocking more regularly so this is the place to shop if you’re looking for any of my artwork.

2025 has been a quieter year for new artwork from me. 2024 was insanely busy and I’m trying not to give myself a hard time for being less productive this year.
