Hello
I have been in the creative industry for over 25 years. After graduating from Chelsea College of Art in London, l worked in many different countries across Europe, the Middle East and Australia as a scenic artist, prop maker and art director in the Theme Park, TV and Film industry. Moving into illustration a few years later l illustrated for design, editorial, advertising and publishing projects in the UK, Europe and US . A few years ago, l signed my first book deal to write and illustrate books for children. I have just finished my ninth title!
