Alex is an artist and illustrator based in Edinburgh, Scotland. Alex's practice explores the cultural identity of food through painting and drawing. In particular, his interest lies within culinary practices that have specific social connotations and connections to tradition and identity. He aims to humorously examine the sociopolitical context of consumption and celebrate community-driven values through lo-fi aesthetics. Although primarily a painter and bookmaker, his working outcomes often focus upon participatory, playful, and engaging installations. As well as this Alex also regularly takes part in artist book events throughout Scotland, exhibiting handmade zines, artist books and illustrative artwork, with one publication recently accessioned in the Tate Zine Collection.

I'm living my dream of working as a freelance illustrator in the San Francisco area, where the redwood forests, dramatic cliffs, and occasional whale tails are a source of constant inspiration. My first book, 'Wendell the Narwhal' was published by Simply Read Books last year. Clients include Penguin Random House, Usborne, American Greetings, The Seattle Symphony, and others. As a certified California Naturalist, I hope to use illustration as a tool to educate and inspire others to fall in love with the natural world.
