My agency Bright Group International have just finished putting the final touches to a fantastic new literary site. Here's a snapshot of the 'Rising Stars' page which I'm very proud to be a part of alongside some great people and superb scribblers!
I am currently working on my first author/illustrated book using a shiny new style so keep your eyes open for updates! :)
So on Monday I had a fab email from Templar saying that one of the Stinky & Jinks books that I did is up for another award. This time it's 'My Hamster's Got talent' for the 'Worcestershire Awesomest Book Awards' and it couldn't be more awesomest news. Roll on 2015 and stay tuned to see how the little guy gets on!
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!
Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
John McCrae, May 1915
Earlier this year one of my books that I illustrated was read and animated on CiTV's Bookaboo series starring a crazy rock pooch that can't play his drums until he's had a story read to him. It was so much fun seeing the book come to life and to be read by the fab Des Hegarty at Wilbury Primary School.....some of the stills from the video are below :

Welcome to my new website where all sorts of news, stuff and thingymabobs will be posted to share with you what's exactly going on in my world.
So as it's a brand new site there's obviously been a lot that's happened in the past *ahem* amount of years that I've been a professional Illustrator. If you'd like to find out exactly what then pop over to my old blog, however everything will be posted up here from now on! :)
