Josh is a London-based illustrator known for his bright, bold, and playful style. His work spans everything from branding and advertising to animation, editorial, and packaging design. He’s worked with big names like The New York Times, Bloomberg, the Paris Paralympics, and the BBC, but no matter the project, his focus is always on creating fun, engaging visuals that pull you in.

He’s passionate about building mood and atmosphere in his work, often getting lost in the details, crafting intricate, isometric illustrations packed with little surprises that reveal themselves the more you look. He’s also no stranger to animation as well, having worked closely with motion studios and brought plenty of his own illustrations to life.

Josh’s studio is never quiet. A keen vinyl collector, music is a huge part of his creative process, and there’s always something spinning in the background.

My project I’m proudest of to-date is…
Probably the Paralympics explainer videos I worked on in 2024. It was such an awesome brief and ended up winning a bunch of awards! The Animation studio I collaborated with were absolute legends as well.
My favourite kind of space to work in is…
One where I'm not in charge of watering the plants, because I will kill them.
I do my best work…
Strangely between the hours of about 9pm - 2am. I'm quite easily distracted so I find I'm more productive when everyone else is asleep and there are fewer distractions.
I love collaborating with…
Friendly, easy going people who are passionate about what they do.
My solution to creative block is…
Sketching! I find simply sketching my surroundings can be a great way of loosening up and getting those creative juices flowing.
I can’t stop listening to…
The Smashing Pumpkins - Never Let Me Down Again cover is my ultimate zone-in, eyes-closed song at the moment. I'll be very surprised if it's not in my 2025 Spotify Wrapped.
