After a 20 year career in as an animator and graphic designer, I began illustrating children’s books in 2017. Initially I illustrated my own children’s books and I’ve since illustrated books for both indie and traditional publishers.
I illustrate digitally on my iPad Pro in a gentle watercolour style. Painting digitally means I can make changes easily if needed (handy for my customers), and the illustrations are already in the correct format to insert into the book – no scanning required.
My experience as a graphic designer means I can also design the book cover and interior ready for the hardback, paperback, and e-book, ensuring that the files are at the correct resolution with the correct amount of bleed area.
