The Whole Picture
- Wearing both hats- Why become an author/illustrator? How changing my idea of what writing is, has helped me to tell stories ... my way; A description of my process and the advice I keep in red letters on my studio wall; Anecdotes which may help prospective author/illustrators on their way toward publication.
- Tomato Sandwich- the writing of a wordless picture book(To be published by Walker Books early 2025)- A blow by blow description of the creative process behind my next picture book ‘Tomato Sandwich’; Without words, how to tell the story? Expression, perspective, scale, colour, line...what is in the toolkit of a visual storyteller? Identifying a theme from initial sketches-what’s your story about? Going from an initial premise to a complete narrative; The prickly problem of page layout.
- My approach to illustrating in watercolour- a painting demonstration: From initial washes to final details, how I go about illustrating a full colour spread.
