Children's book writer and illustrator
Activity Library & Art Shop
A Ko-fi shop selling art, prints and digital comics, and where you can download free activities for kids.
Picture Book-making Course
Learn how to bring new worlds to life on the page as you create stories and characters that capture the imaginations and hearts of young readers. With me and the amazing Sarah McIntyre, courtesy of Curtis Brown Creative.
Bookshop
I've written or illustrated almost fifty books and you can buy them here. Each purchase benefits independent bookshops.
Social Media
Instagram is where you'll find all my book news and art (& other things like dogs, nature and travels), but I also use X for book and event announcements, and TikTok/YouTube for drawing videos and book talk (launch autumn '24). My YouTube channel will be entirely kid-friendly.
