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.

First attempt at mono printing
I have no idea how to clean a roller, washing up liquid did not cut it. I have ended up with a house full of black rags......maybe I need white spirit!

New term.....sequential image ( aka made up stuff in a specific order)
So I haven't posted anything in a looooooonnnnngggggg time. I feel in this case that I can truly blame it on the weather. Bugs caused by the damp weather has caused my house to cease production as I have been up again and again at night with sickly children. Anyway, the kids are now occasionally back in school and hopefully I may get to do the occasional scribble. Fingers crossed.

Today I got up at 5 to go drawing. I am not as pleased with today's efforts but here they are. Hannah my tutor suggested some night drawing and hence the early morning start. However the light didn't pick up much as it is raining and grey grey grey grey. I then sat in the car with the radio on and now my battery is flat. Had to walk home in the rain. I am now deflated and am going to get on with the essay instead.
