Testimonials

Simeon is a very talented illustrator and it was great to have him on board as part of the team who worked on the ITV Creative Black History Month 2020 campaign. His illustrations played a big part in the creative, and his dedication to making them perfect by putting in so much effort didn't go unnoticed. I can't wait to work with him again. 

Angela Lyttle, Producer, ITV Creative

"I had a very particular concept in mind for my book sleeve that Simeon was able to capture with ease. The final product is stunning, and better yet has a certain edge and style to it which was just what I was looking for. Finally, he was very responsive and a pleasure to work with." 

Shaqueous Williamson, Author 

“From the briefing stage to receiving the first rough it was clear that my concept was in safe hands. I found Simeon not only prompt and easy to work with but also he has the right balance of fulfilling the brief and suggesting various executions. The whole process was pleasurable and I received a fantastic piece of art at the end of it.”

Justin Snartt, Creative Director, Total TVGuide
