Overview
Overview:
I've been designing and illustrating children's fiction and non-fiction books for many years. I've also created artwork for poetry and fiction for adults, I love to work with new people and I enjoy a creative challenge. I am open to discussing new projects at any time.
Artwork:
I work in both traditional and digital, please take a look through my portfolio. I'm happy to turn my hand to lots of different projects but mostly I love a good story to work with.
I do not use AI to produce my artwork and I do not consent to any of my work being used for generative AI.
Experience:
I started out as a designer and illustrator for Usborne Books and created 100+ titles with them. Since becoming freelance I continue to work with a variety of clients including Macmillan, Floris, Igloo, Egmont UK and Holy Cow Games.

If you are unsure about design and layout but you have a great story that you'd like to bring to life, feel free to contact me and we can have a chat and take it from there.
However, if you have a complete, edited manuscript with page size and publishing format, plus you've seen a style of mine that you like, perfect! Send along all the details and I can quote straight away.
