Simon Lewin explains how Random Spectacular came about...

"As a result of working with a number of artists, makers and printers that we admired, Angie and I had been toying with the idea of some sort of printed journal. We had a shared passion for publications like Jake Tilson's Atlas series, and the Motif books (published by Shenval Press from the late 1950s to the late 1960s) and wanted to produce something that replicated much of their spirit.

In 2010 Mark Hearld and Emily Sutton joined Angie and I to work at our studio in the Highlands and in the course of a walk round Loch an Eilein we had come up with the name and a commitment to publish.

We approached a number of contributors, some who would produce self-contained submissions, others who we would pair up to collaborate. We were delighted that everybody we contacted agreed to contribute to the first issue - and to donate their time which is allowing us to make this first issue a fundraiser for Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres - every penny above and beyond the printing and mailing costs will be donated to the charity who we have been proud to support in the past."

Illustrated opposite are just a few of our 52 spreads (104 pages) of content.
