We recently had the idea of setting up an illustrator-in-residence position at Globalista. We felt that we were in a good position to be able to support and help promote a talented young travel illustrator, whose work we could also start introducing to our website to develop the quality and style of our design, to support the excellent travel content that we are collating on our site.

George Butler is the illustrator whom we have invited to take up this post of illustrator-in-residence. To start with, the position will very much be an informal one but the idea is that we can post his travel illustrations and travel stories, and in time we hope to be in a position to sponsor George on his various trips abroad.

George studied at Kingston University (2004-2007), and has since been employed by Granta magazine and Descent ski company to name a few. He has also already won several awards for his illustrations, including the Reportage Award at Kingston University in 2007.

You can find further details about George and his brilliant work at www.georgebutler.org and do get in touch with George directly via his website or with us, if you like what you see.
