Max Low

Max Low has recently graduated from Hereford College of Arts with a degree in Illustration. His work is quirky, friendly and energetic, made using a very fat pen and a very old computer. He is influenced by the simplicity of booksby Lucy Cousins and Dick Bruna as well as drawings by children themselves. In 2017 Max was shortlisted for the Penguin Student Design Award for his book jacket design of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. His work has been featured in children’s magazines but My Friends is his first picture book. Max lives in Crickhowell, Powys.
