About me
After studying illustration at Falmouth university I am now looking for freelance illustration work. Whether my work is aimed at children's or adults I always look to have a strong thread of humor running through it. I am always looking to develop my illustration and regularly sketch outdoors in and around London and attend life drawing class.

    Sketchercises LONDONSelf published illustrated travel book on London Sketchercises - exercise for the mind through the activity of drawing. A collection of over 300 sketches from around the central boroughs of London. Including landmarks, Londoners and pigeons. All the illustrations in the book were created in front of the subject's. I find I just can get the same energy in the drawings when using photographs. Available from: Amazon, Lulu, Barnes & Nobles.

    Sketchercises LONDON 2Work in progress... Second illustrated travel book about London. Featuring 300+ sketches from around the central boroughs of London.
  • Nippon
    NipponIkimasho! In Japanese this means 'Lets Go!' and is the essence of this book. To foster enthusiasm in young readers for another country and it's culture, in this case Japan. Nippon is aimed at the 6-12 age range. It introduces Japan and its culture to children using the characters Mallory (an English hare) and Taichi (a Japanese duck). As they travel through the country they experience the food, tradition and surprises that Japan has to offer. The reader can concentrate on the story, indulge in the extra information or just search for the 42 missing crabs. I believe this suits different children and would serve to widen the age range of the audience.
