Children's Book Illustrator & Designer

My art medium is pencil, pastel and ink.

I try to keep my pictures as interesting and detailed as possible, as I find children love to find something new everytime they go back to a book.

I tend to focus my characters on animals as I am a great animal lover, although I have had a set of pre-school board books published called Bertie, in which the main character is a little boy and his dog. I then did a spin off series called Rufus (the Dog) and this has been published as a book of short stories called The Adventures of Rufus & Friends.

The pictures are colourful and fun and the stories all have a happy ending including a moral to each story.

Not only can I illustrate cartoons I can also do fine art and can draw almost anything.
