New Release!

Illustrated by the talented Natalie Herington,

the book beautifully captures Charlie’s home

and the vibrant Australian outback.

Using all locally made Australian paints,

Natalie adds texture and colour that perfectly complement the themes of the story. 

​

This book showcases Australian fauna

and is an ideal read for children of all ages, igniting their imagination, and literally helping them to think outside the box.

Fine Art
 

With all the perfection of digital art saturating our feeds I aim to capture nature's characters with all their imperfections. Using Waterecolour and dip pens my style is full of free lines, splatters and splodges mimicking the imperfections of nature.

Watercolour Illustration from 'The Postman's My Mate' A boy, his emu friend and magpie playing in a cardboard box, they imagine it is real and they are sailing over the waves with their sheep friends bobbing around them wearing Googles and life rings.

Children's Books

My Children's book illustrations have texture, imperfections and paint splatters. I add details and layers of story so children can go back and discover things they might have missed the first time.

Commercial Projects
 

I create watercolour Illustrations of environmental subjects and

Digital infographics. I have worked with Councils, Government organisations and educators.
