Nick Morley is an artist and illustrator working in London.
His idiosyncratic and wryly humourous take on the human
condition manifests itself through drawings, prints, books
and interactive works.

Nick has been commissioned to illustrate book covers for
Penguin and Faber & Faber and has been published twice
in Le Gun magazine. Other clients include The Times,
Prospect magazine and Rhinegold Publishing.

The major themes running through Nick’s personal work
are masculinity, heroism, human achievement and man’s
efforts to leave his mark on the world. Subjects include
hunters, wrestlers and bearded men.

Nick has exhibited widely across the UK and abroad. His
work has been featured in a BBC2 documentary about
the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in which it was
picked out as a favourite by comedian Vic Reeves.

Nick is a committee member and keyholder at
East London Printmakers. He teaches regular workshops
at ELP and London Print Studio.
