Hi Chrissie, Have you thought of using an art college? I've had great success several times using something I needed as a live brief for graphic design students at my local specialist college (Cleveland College of Art and Design). The best thing about it is it's usually free, though a financial inducement as a prize for the best design / illustration always helps! The other great advantage is that you get several responses to the brief to choose from, and all the students get something out of it as they include it in their portfolios. All best Colin Colin Wilkinson Managing Director Corylus Learning Ltd and Corylus Consulting PO Box 210 Redcar TS10 9AG T 01642 918778 M 07850 713567 E [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: psci-com: on public engagement with science [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Giles, Chrissie Sent: 12 February 2010 14:22 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [PSCI-COM] Looking for an illustrator Hi Psci-Com, I'm looking for a freelance illustrator/designer who has experience producing infographics and/or technical-style line drawings (possibly exploded-view) of objects that could be used in 'guide to x'-style articles. I'm not looking for precise drawings that are to scale, more simplified, cartoon-y type drawings. Do you know anyone who might be suitable, or other sources of contacts I could try?
