About

I’m an award-winning illustrator, who works with editors and art directors to make wonderful, thought-provoking and colourful picture books for kids.

I draw quirky animals. I’m inspired by poster art, and I love bright colour and simple shapes. My style is bold, bright and graphic with a vintage vibe.

With every book I work on, I’m always looking for the WOW moment! The moment that creates a sense of wonder, adds a deeper layer of meaning to the story, and gives the reader something to take away and think about afterwards.

Fun is important too in my work, and it presents itself in my books all sorts of ways. It might be through a joke, a twist, a reoccurring symbol or a punchline. However it shows up, it will make you laugh or smile.

I believe reading is number one for kids! Through books, kids make connections from the story to their own life, helping them to understand and cope with the world around them.

Other things to tell you about me?

I love airports, chocolate, and illustrated maps. I collect enamel pins and toy London double-decker buses. I still believe in Santa Claus.
