Steven Camley

We are delighted to be currently exhibiting works by Herald cartoonist Steven Camley, alongside Alasdair Gray and Joyce Gunn Cairns.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Veteran author and artist Alasdair Gray is a huge fan of Camley's satirical cartoons and requested an exhibition with him and his other favourite, Gunn Cairns. 
 
 
Steven Camley is a multi award-winning cartoonist, and his career has been stratospheric.
 
In 2000, he was invited to join the Sunday Herald where he spent three successful years providing the weekly ‘Backyard’ strip before being invited to join The Herald, where his cartoons have surprised and delighted readers five days a week since 2003.
 
 
 
 
 

Every Herald reader is rewarded by their purchase of the paper by his hard-hitting pithy observations of the world as he sees it. His occasionally caustic cartoons usually give readers material for meditation. Always on the side of the underdog, willing to lampoon the most powerful and fearless in cross-party criticism, no politician nor political leader is protected from his irony.
 
The original water colour paintings are full of high-quality draughtsmanship, wit and energy.  They are also quite beautiful.
