I draw all sorts of things: animals, boats, mayhem, waves... And I can hide little pictures inside my drawings if needed! Can you find the envelope?

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day!

This illustration was created last year for a @highlightsforchildren Magical Woodland hidden pictures activity book and used as one of their promotional images online!

I’d love to take on more trade work and am open to representation.

I write and illustrate board books, picture books, and readers. I love quirky characters and anything that lets me show a character in a range of emotions.
