Last year I had the opportunity to illustrate my first children's picture book for a wonderful and talented children's author.

The first books will be published as part of a larger series this year. I am currently working on illustrations for the next series of books. 

​

Coming from a surface design background it is amazing to apply my understanding of colour, texture and pattern to the wonderful worlds and magical characters in children's picture books. 

 

My sketchbook comes everywhere with me, sunshine or rain you can find me stopping to sketch. Developing characters from my sketches and creating imaginary worlds for them to live in is pure joy. 

​​

If you have an idea, a story, a character that needs to be brought to life through pictures I would love to hear from you.
