Children's Fiction Illlustrations
I have illustrated books for Scholastic Ltd, Lion Publishing Plc, Barefoot Books Ltd, Nelson Thornes Ltd, Folens Publishing and Oxford University Press and am well versed in producing illustrations to deadline.
I use acrylics, found objects and textures often with 'cut-out' elements which I then scan in to my computer and add further detail to digitally. I use soft pencil mostly but sometimes pen line. For simpler works I use line with textured colour.
I am working on my own picture book stories at the moment and will be sending them out to publishers very soon. I can provide further examples and info on request. 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.
