About

Hello, thank you for visiting. I am an illustrator and surface pattern designer. I’ve been creating artwork forever but when my children were babies I went to college to study illustration and graphic design. This led me to creating my first picture book published by Hachette Children’s Books in 2012. Since then I have enjoyed illustrating 18 published picture books.

My illustrations and surface pattern designs also feature on fabrics and can be applied to a wide range of different products. I adore creating colourful and engaging patterns and illustrations for children to enjoy.

Children’s Book Illustration

I have illustrated a large variety of children’s picture books and educational material covering a diverse range of subject matter. Publishers include The National Library of Australia, Hachette Children’s Books
