Sketchbook time! I’ve been able to loosen up in my sketchbook an awful lot more recently and not worry too much about how nice or ‘finished’ they may look. Instead I’m discovering what works, what doesn’t and what to do next. I’ve had a little break from Owl r over the past couple of weeks, but I’ve missed them! I’m ready to revisit and see what adventures they get up to 🦉🦌 . . . . . #childrensbookillustration #masters #experimentation #ideas #sketchbook #pith #pithsketchbook #characterdesign #stories #charactersketch #kidlitart #illustratorsofinstagram #childrensbooknorth #adventurestoriesforkids #characterdevelopment #owlanddeer #friendshipgoals #deercharacter #owlcharm

A little bit of sketching this evening for this little character. I decided to just use simple charcoal in my sketchbook so I wouldn’t have to worry about choice of material and colours. I also wanted to just draw without overthinking too much. I actually quite like the beginning of this character… maybe I should develop it further? At the beginning of my MA character design is something I really really struggled with, the more practice I’m doing and not overthinking, I feel I’m getting slightly better at the process. . . . . . #student #childrensbookillustration #masters #experimentation #ideas #charcoaldrawing #sketchbook #moleskine #expressionsheet #curlyhairdontcare #theresaholeinmypocket #characterdevelopment #illustratorsofinstagram #childrensbooknorth

Bears 😍 I made these a few weeks ago. They feature in one of my story ideas Snail Soup . It’s all about a very hungry fox and Badger and a group of rather harassed snails and ladybugs 😳 Will the snails survive? #childrensbooknorth #goodshipillo #childrensbookillustration #childrensbookartist #kidlitillustrators #kidlitillustrator #kidlitillustrations #childrensbooksnorth
Some of the details in my latest collage. Lots of textured papers and some painted scrim onto the flowers and trees. I also added some words in the leaves from Romeo and Juliet, one of my favourite films growing up. I had so much fun! #childrensbooknorth #collage #textures #romeojuliet #childhoodillustrated #blossom🌸 #bearadventures #childrensbooks #stories #kidlitart #catterpillarstobutterflies #goodshipillo
This is a new collage I’ve been working on following some childhood memories I had recently discovered while doing @thegoodshipillustration Find Your Creative Voice course. I had a tiny little brown bear from my dolls house that I would always carry around in my pocket, he would go everywhere with me and I would tell him all my worries and secrets. Then one day he fell out of my pocket and into the toilet and was lost!… I always wondered if he was trying to find his way back to me and what adventures he would encounter along the way. I always would sit under a Cherry Blossom tree in the garden and draw pictures of me and bear and the adventures we could go on together. So I created lots of textured papers and some painted scrim onto the flowers and trees. I then added a few secret characters in there (can you spot them?) I also added some words in the leaves from Romeo and Juliet, one of my favourite films growing up. I had so much fun! #childrensbooknorth #collage #textures #romeojuliet #childhoodillustrated #blossom🌸 #bearadventures #childrensbooks #stories #kidlitart #catterpillarstobutterflies #goodshipillo
One of my favourite spreads from Danzando sotto la Pioggia 🍎 Swipe for process pics! I created this spread at the beginning of July, with the prospect of Summer in the air and sunlight streaming through my window 🌞 I was a hermit during those months, but lots of homemade smoothies and good music got me through 💪🏻 These sunny May days are bringing back all the excitement and memories! 📍My original influence came from this photograph of New York and was one of the earliest images I saved for inspiration. I loved the different layers of building shapes and textures, and of course, the bus! 📍I like to play around with white space in my composition, and looked a lot at M Sasek for city illustration inspo. Originally Gene was running up hill, but after discussions with the publisher we decided to change this, as well as including the New York taxi 📍This page is actually pieced together on photoshop, which meant I painted each section separately. The window display was taken from the iconic dance scene from Singing in the Rain ☔️ 📍Gene’s character went through several drafts but in the end this is the one we went with - I really love the graphic elements that make up this painting! Which part of the process is your favourite? 🌟 . . . #danzandosottolapioggia #childrensillustration #artprints #singingintherain #childrensbookprocess #picturebookprocess #behindthescenesillustration #behindthescenespicturebooks #storybookart #whimsicalart #musicalsart #bookillustrations #genekelly #newyorkillustration #childrenspublishing #childrensbooknorth #publishingindustry Publishing opportunities | portfolio for publishers | book contract ready | author illustrator | award winning artwork | agent submissions
Say hello to Rita… Do you remember Rita the Lollipop Lady from one of my previous illustrations? Well that was her Monday to Friday job, helping children cross the road to get safely to school. During the weekend she travels into space. Today, me and my friend @emmasuttonillustration got together to work on some collages for our MA we are currently doing at @preston_illustration UCLan in Children’s Book Illustration. Our challenge was to collage a character chosen from a tub with numerous characters in. We wanted to focus on people this time rather than animals. From the tub I chose ‘Space Person’ and Emma chose ‘Witch.’ We had a fabulous day creating, and whilst eating a cheeky Bakewell Tart I decided of course the tin casing would make a superb space helmet edge and collar. I tend to work really slow , therefore only managed one character, Emma managed to finish her Witch, so created a cute little girl too! So next time I shall let you know what Rita gets up to during Summer Holidays when the children don’t need to go to school, as she likes to keep busy! #bemorerita #rita #superhero #independantwoman #spaceexploration #characterdesign #childrensbooknorth #childrensbookillustration #collage #textures #nasa #spacestory #illustratorsoninstagram #redlipstick #explorespace #goodshipillo

I have so many fabulous memories from @bolognachildrensbookfair but we weee so busy I didn’t get time to sketch any of the beautiful city. However, we did have lots of time at the airport due to our flight being cancelled last minute! So we got time to sit and sketch before we had to dash for our flight. A snippet of silence and sketching with @preston_illustration. I’ve called it ‘Airport Waiting’. . . . #childrensbookillustration #masters #fieldtrip #adventure #italy #bologna #bcbf24 #bolognachildrensbookfair #storytime #student #newtechniques #followmyjouney #bolognachildrensbookfair2024 #walktosee #illustratorsofinstagram #childrensbooknorth #illustrationartists #illustrationartists #insparation #friends #airportdiaries #waiting #neocolorii #carandacheluminance #moleskinesketchbook

📚✨ DANCING IN THE RAIN is out today! ✨📚 I’m so thrilled to finally share this gem of a book with you 🙌🏻 and deeply grateful to Giulia for entrusting me with her beautiful story. Here’s hoping English translations will follow soon! 🌟 👇🏻 A little more about the book 👇🏻 “Dancing in the Rain is a journey into the magical world of Gene Kelly through the eyes of a 3-year-old boy named Olmo. Watching Kelly’s most famous films - such as Singing in the Rain, An American in Paris, One Day in New York, The Pirate - Olmo comes into contact with the poetics of the great dancer, choreographer, director and visionary artist of the twentieth century. A book that is also a hymn to dance, a powerful tool to help the child develop his own identity and grow mentally and emotionally. Gene Kelly was and still is pure magic!” ☔️🕺🌈 A heartfelt thank you also to Patricia, Cinzia, Laura, Samuelle, and the rest of the team at @edizionicurci and @wbpictures for making this project possible. Collaborating with such dedicated individuals to get the references to Gene’s films as accurate possible has been an absolute pleasure, and I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to breathe life into these enchanting scenes. 💛 DANZANDO SOTTO LA PIOGGIA is now available at your (Italian) local bookstore! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ I guess dreams really do come true <3 . . . @genekellylegacy @la.zuc @pension_lepic @edizionicurci @warnerbrosentertainment #debutpicturebook #picturebookrelease #pressrelease #childrensbookrelease #bookcover #illustratedbookcover #danza #musical #danzandosottolapoiggia #childrensbooknorth #catherineboothillustration #childrensbookannouncement #picturebookbirthday #bookbirthday #newchildrensbook #genekelly #genekellylegacy #italianchildrensbooks #bolognachildrensbookfair #newbookalert #childrensbookauthor #coverart #childrensbookillustration #picturebookartist #picturebookart #illüstrationart #gouachepainting

Saturday afternoon in Sheffield with other fellow illustrators! What a lovely bunch of people. Whilst walking from one pub to the next, we crowded around an amazing mural. The artist Rob Lee who created the mural just so happened to be walking past and kindly chatted to us about the mural.

Our campaign is a collaboration between climate parent groups @ourkidsclimate @parentsforfuture_uk @mothersriseup and children's illustrators @emmaillustrate of @kidlit4climate #KidLit4Climate @_editartz @_jimfield and @rebecca_a_cobb. It is open to everyone. So join in! Let's celebrate the vibrancy and wonder of #OurOtherMother! #AmaraAndTheBats #ChildrensIllustrator #ChildrensBookNorth #CBN #KidLitArt

I’m very pleased to announce our new picture book ‘Goldilocks in Space’ 🚀 Written by the incredible @peterbently and published by the lovely @hachettekids team! Publishes 1st October 2020🌜🪐🛰️☄️👾 Captain Goldilocks is on a mission to find a new planet that's just as good as Earth! But everywhere she lands is too cold or too hot, too slimy or too scary, too wobbly or too full-of-aliens. Will she ever find a planet that's just right? An interstellar adventure with a timely environmental message from award-winning author Peter Bently. 🌎⭐️☄️💫 . . . #illustration #illustrator #childrenstories #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #childrensbookstagram #bookstagram #bookaholic #book #picturebooks #picturebook #picturebookillustration #kidlit #kidlitart #kidlitartist #kidlitillustration #artist #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #picturebookart #art #childrensbooknorth #space #goldilocks #girl #adventure #fun #best_of_illustrations

Setting up at the end of 2019 was pretty exciting, of course we had no idea that 2020 was going to deliver a global pandemic that would affect everything we’ve all known and although things have been strange by some blessings it hasn’t stopped our growth. So much has been happening behind the scenes at Mirror Me Write. We are excited to announce that we joined the committee of our local #bookfestival at the start of the new year. Keen to make our mark and inject some #diversity to the festival, we’ve been busy creating links with authors. The festival in itself has had to change plans and as we can’t bring you live events, we’ve decided to take to all of our social media and online platforms available to us. If you are interested in being in the know then please join us on our new festival insta page @chorlton_book_festival_ that we have just set up. We will be uploading the festival programme and highlights, over the next few weeks. Festival dates - Saturday 19th- 25th Sep 2020. #chorlton #southmanchester #chorltonreads #readmanchester #childrensbooknorth #bookfestival #manchester #manchestercityofliterature #manchesterschools #chorltonschools #chorltonteachers #bookstagram #northernbookfestival #manchesterauthors #manchesterauthorevent #lovebooks #manchesterbookbloggers #manchesterbookclub #southmanchesterevents #chorltonevents #manchesterlibrary
