Children's and Educational illustration

I have illustrated books for Scholastic Ltd, Lion Publishing Plc, Barefoot Books Ltd, Nelson Thornes Ltd, Folens Publishing and Oxford University Press.

I have written one children's novel (circa 25,000 words) with the aim of publication called 'The Land of Soil and Sea', along with rough plot outlines for two more books in the same series entitled 'The Jewelled Volcano' and 'The Weatherman Cabaret'.
I have also written some short stories and have developed ideas for picture books. I have put a few examples and descriptions at the bottom of this page; I can provide further examples and info on request.
