Profile

I am a UK based children's illustrator interested in creating illustration using primarily traditional materials; watercolour, coloured pencil, collage and fabric. Having a BA in Theatre Design and an MA in Illustration my work has become multi-disciplinary, incorporating both 2d and 3d techniques. I enjoy mucking about with soft sculpture and fabric, creating versions of my drawn characters in 3d.   I also make hand-drawn dioramas, I like the atmosphere that layered depth gives to the drawing. I have written a number of books for children.
