He has been a fulltime collage/multi-media artist and illustrator since 1984 and his work has appeared on over forty book covers, various CD sleeves and T-shirts and literarily thousands of magazines in Britain, America and Japan.
He is the author of the unintentionally controversial autobiography, "Chucking It All", a hilarious account of the seven years he spent in the Orkney Islands as a downshifter.
He is also the author of "Illustration 101", a business guide for illustrators, plus "How to Grab the Attention of Art Directors and Editors with the Simple Use of Postcards".
He has received the New York Dimensional Illustrators’ Bronze Award three times, once for Recycled Sculpture and twice for Paper Collage.
Max currently spends his time illustrating and writing, plus painting, making animated films and doing the odd bit of seminar speaking.view less
