A series of children’s books about nature published by Raspberry Books.

All illustrations were hand stamped by me with colours added in photoshop.

My love of pottery has always been present as an illustrator and has seen me dabbling in and out making various bits over the years. 2023 saw me purchase a small kiln which has allowed me to develop and experiment with techniques and different processes.

For this series of tiles I have created paper cut stencils from pencil illustrations which are then applied to my hand made tiles with slip.

I have taken inspiration from all the things I love, my favourite foods, my children, nature, shape & patterns, space and ancient history. I have found this process to be very liberating!

The famous and much loved diplodocus -‘Dippy’ from the Natural History Museum in London is going on tour! I was asked by the Museum to create illustrations to advertise Dippy’s tour.

You can see my illustrations of Dippy, other creatures and scientific artefacts on posters promoting the tour.  You can also follow the hashtag #DippyOnTour to follow Dippy's journey.

Inspired by the work of Anni Albers and her typewriter patterns.
