LEFTY BECOMES LOVE'S RIGHT HAND MAN
Love Communications, Sydney has appointed Andrew Leftley, also known as ‘Lefty’, as senior art director.
Leftley (pictured) has recently returned to Sydney after a stint at Saatchi & Saatchi Dubai and has previously worked at M&C Saatchi, McCann Erickson and Publicis Mojo.
At Love, he’ll work across the board on the majority of Love’s accounts, and will cross-pollinate with a number of writers, including CD, Scot Waterhouse, and Executive CD Siimon Reynolds.
“Lefty, brings with him great skills; he’s a great art director, a great concept creator and he’s a top bloke,” said Waterhouse.
Love has also hired Ben Alden as a graphic designer to bolster Love’s in house design team.
“We’ve been pitching like mad, and it’s paid off. We’ve won some great new pieces of business and we can now tool-up creatively, so within the next few weeks, we’ll put on another couple of creatives,” added Waterhouse.
In the past nine months, Love has won Ego Pharmaceuticals, Davenport, The Climate Institute and Breville to name but a few.

"Cross pollinate?"
That's a new one. Let's see if it takes off.
Flowers have been doing it for years. Love and Lefty will probably evolve into Lofty.
The name Lofty is already taken. Alan Lofthouse, art director Abbott Mead Vickers in the 1980s. Now he was really funny.
how about just "L" - or is that confusing with ELLE?

go out out more.
Lofty was a twat and not that funny. He wanted to be lefty but that name was taken by Bob Leftsoven the dutch kid who worked down in dispatch. Now HE WAS FUNNY. Which is odd becasue as a rule the Dutch aren't funny people. Apart from the old finger in the dike jokes which are their nations 'knock knock ' jokes they just dont have a sense of humor. So Bob was definately the odd one out. Got promoted from Dispactch to head of Media but got bored and went back to Dispatch then left and set up an on line tulip ordering company. **-
