I studied for a Graphics and Visual Communication Degree at Bath Academy of Art. I then worked in the printing business, jewellery making, and architectural illustration, before becoming self-employed and pursuing a successful career in Children's Book Illustrating. I have illustrated over 200 titles, and worked for many publishers , including Oxford University Press, Scholastic, Ladybird, Usborne (winning a Rhone Poulenc Prize for best Science Book), Cornelsen Verlag, Reader's Digest, Future - to name a few. I have also worked for Galt Toys, painting many pictures for jigsaw puzzles, as well as other games. I use watercolour and other water-based mediums such as gouache and inks. My work is usually humorous and colourful - and I enjoy it! I work from my home in rural Wiltshire, with my Jack Russell, Jolie, for company and inspiration.
