Available to hire
Hi, I’m James Barry, an illustrator and graphic designer who loves turning ideas into vivid visuals. I’ve collaborated with agencies and studios across the UK, creating editorial illustrations, branding, and motion graphics that help brands tell their stories with energy and clarity.
I’m fascinated by how AI and new technologies are reshaping the creative process. I blend traditional craft with digital tools to deliver work that is expressive, efficient, and human at heart.

Work Experience
Motion Designer at CR Studio
January 1, 2023 - December 1, 2025I am an experienced graphic designer, a published editorial illustrator (including Maxim, Financial Times, Men’s Fitness) and motion graphics/character animator. My last two positions have been with London based animation studio Content Creatures and Cardiff based agency CR studio, where I was involved in the re-branding of Brains (flexing my copy writing skills to come up with the new brand tagline which has now been adopted on bottles and merchandise.) I have also recently produced illustrations for 2 Brains beer pump designs, which will be introduced in pubs over the next few months. My work can be seen at jamesbarryillustration.com.
