I chose the word spooky instead of Halloween because it's October (spooky season). My doodles are going to be part of an illustration for children.

Always great to get your dose of vitamin sea! I went to a few beaches - St.Ives, Mousehole, Penzance and Port Isaac. The weather was sunny with a few cloudy spots and it was great having a change of scenery and being to just chill! Whale inspired by my trip. #childrensillustrator #kidlitartist

I went on my jolly holls last week, which was great! It was nice to get a change of scenery and some fresh inspiration for new design work. I have two fabric collections coming out next year. Here are snippets from the Dino range 🦖🦕🌿 #illustrator #kidsillustrator #freelanceillustrator

Throwback Thursday when my Ocean book launched in spring this year. I'm sharing one of my initial drawings. These were painted using gouache. It was a fun project to work on. #childrensbookillustrator #ThrowbackThursday #kidlitartist #nonfictionillustrator #kidsillustrator #picturebookillustrator

Egg tempera I think is for more fine art pieces, which I don't produce. I'm happy using gouache.

Thank you Jackie. Gouache is a lovely medium to use. They come in all sorts of colours and I love how creamy they are too. Good to try new paints!

Autumn Brown 🐌🍁🍂 When I've finished working on client projects, I want to play around with colour palettes. I'm thinking of adding more neutral colours which give a sense of comfort, calmness, warmth and natural balance. #autumnvibes #FallVibes #kidlitartist #nonfictionillustrator

Throwback to 5 years ago (can't believe this was back in 2021!). Autumn picnic 🦔🐁🍁 This is when I started to change my style and I love the mix or rich autumn colours in this piece. #autumnvibes #fall #illustrator #freelanceillustrator #childrensillustrator #nonfictionillustrator #kidlitartist
