In March 2007 I was appointed DLA Piper Artist in Residence for the new LJMU Art & Design Academy.

"DLA Piper has opened the doors of its Liverpool legal practice to one of the UK's leading documentary illustrators as part of a unique 'fly on the wall' initiative." As the new DLA Piper Artist in Residence, I will be documenting not only life in the firm's offices on Water Street but also the ongoing regeneration of Liverpool's city centre.

Thanks to DLA Piper's sponsorship I will be chronicling the development of the University's new £23 million Art and Design Academy, currently being developed on a site close to the Metropolitan Cathedral. The Academy is a major cultural building scheduled to open during 2008 when Liverpool is European Capital of Culture.

This page illustrates some of the drawings from DLA Piper's Liverpool offices as well as the development of LJMU's Art & Design Academy
