About Me

My Portfolio: Book Illustrations: Children's Books Gallery
book illustration
All the pictures in this gallery are children's book illustrations from educational publications. I have worked for many of the big educational publishers in the UK, but also in Botswana and South Africa.
My experiences of Africa and my world travel help me to visualise people from different races and cultures.
