Hello! I’ve been a busy bee and a little slow on the blogging side!!! Here’s a catch up…

I loved doing the illustrations for “Little Mister Gets a Sister”. I learnt a lot and enjoyed the process of sinking into world of “Little Mister “in my imagination. Larrikin house was a fabulous publishing company to work with and I count myself very blessed for the opportunity.Now comes the impatient wait by Samaria Lemke (author) and myself for it to be published - hopefully October this year!

In other exciting news, I was shortlisted for an Illustration Award in a competition run by The Illustration Station and CYAll Stars We were asked to create an illustration on the themes of JOY!… So came the anxious wait for the result … and I received a highly commended!

I have had a number of projects in Surface Pattern design as well as having some amazing news in Children’s illustration to share but I will get back to you shortly on those.

Keep well and thanks for reading
