Toya has worked as an illustrator since graduating from Edinburgh College of Art in 2004. From storyboards that come to life as large scale animations to wrapping entire buses, she relishes a creative challenge, and likes to work collaboratively to produce images that can communicate ideas and information in an engaging way. Click on images for project details.

SCIENCE ON BUSES
UNIVERSITY OF SUSSEX

Toya worked collaboratively with scientists from The University of Sussex to produce illustrations depicting areas of research to decorate both the interior and exterior of two of Brighton's buses serving route 25. One bus focussed on astrophysics, the other, particle physics. 
The aim of the project was to engage commuters and other members of the public with physics research, past and present, and its practical applications. The buses also acted as a driver to a selection of online films made by Daisy Asquith.
