This blog is about my dream of becoming a children's book illustrator. I worked for 7 years as a 2D animator and story artist, and I loved my work. I mean, I REALLY loved my work. I would run to work because I was so excited about the prospect of drawing all day. When I had my children I became utterly enchanted by children's books. I am studying an MA in children's illustration and this blog is to chart my progress, my thoughts, desolation, and inspiration.

Went out drawing yesterday and here is the results. This image represents the coldest I have ever been. It is surely crazy to be out drawing in mid November. This was in Nailsworth and there were some rather lovely sculptures of two white reindeer which I had to then draw. They fit so nicely as part of my theme, which is; a Seasonal Diary. Then whilst I was drawing them a tall man with a full on beard came and stared at me, then took a photo of me, (and I think he must have been Father Christmas). Anyway he obviously had to appear in the drawing too. He is the smudgy character staring directly at me. So today I will be putting up my Christmas tree as it is now clearly that time of year.
