the web portfolio of Kim McGillivray, illustrator.

Biography: Kim McGillivray has been illustrating professionally since 1993- serving publishers, designers and advertisers throughout the world.

Kim's illustrations have complemented the work of Muriel Spark, Peter Carey, Gil Scott-Heron, Iain Banks and even the first newspaper publication of Irvine Welsh's
Trainspotting.

Techniques: Kim's work is an on-going investigation of mixed media image-making. His illustrations combine elements of photography with digital, painted and collage techniques. He is happy to create original photography or to handle researched / supplied imagery.

Publishing: Kim has dreamt of designing book covers since art college. He has now supplied illustrations to most major publishers in the UK & US who recognise Kim's ability to absorb a text and translate it effectively into an arresting and relevant cover. That includes images for biographies, historical works, teen fiction, literary fiction and poetry.

Editorial: Kim has created covers and feature illustrations for many national newspapers and magazines.

He's also been a weekly contributor to several prominent newspapers- either devising and illustrating his own topical satire or in partnership with top features writers.

Exposure: Kim is represented by agents in New York,

London and Amsterdam- his work appears in many trade directories including American Showcase, The Workbook, Black Book and Contact. Artwork can be sent anywhere, electronically, via web download.
