Hello, I am a UK based freelance illustrator specialising in children’s book illustration, both fiction and non-fiction. Each piece of work is conjured up over multiple cups of green tea, then carefully planned and realised from my studio in the village of Long Ashton, which is situated on the outskirts of Bristol. I love designing characters, detailed patterns and using bright colour palettes. I work firstly with lines, and then bring them to life using an eclectic array of paint, pens, pencil crayons and digital media.
