Ok What I Can Say

Very excited to have just sent off the artwork for Anna Hibiscus 4 (Anna goes to Canada)

will be published by Walker books in the autumn I think.

Lovely stories of a little girls life in urban Nigeria.

By the storyteller and writer Atinuke.

I have had the pleasure of Illustrating these books for a few years now and always look forward to seeing what she gets up to in each story.

sneaky peak!..to see more you will just have to buy the book :-)

And….. Your Back in the Room!

Well landed back from a truly groovy Glastonbury.

Avoided steaming in an Orangutan suit.. met Prince Charles as you do at glasto.

Met some great people and saw some ace bands!

So….. back in the room ……washing done and trying to sort out the colouring for the Picture book I am doing for Walker books.

I am very excited about it and I would love to blog it all…but no!

so many things going on at present …but I will blog them when they happen.. that’s the problem with publishing its a bit like an elephants pregnancy…….long.

anyway a bear picture ..not much else I can say.

Normal Service Will Be Resumed as Soon as Possible

No tweeting blogging  or general communication.

OFF TO GLASTONBURY!

Next stop the Greenpeace field!

do drop by our field and help with our campaigns or just enjoy the orangutans…its jungle week on the field.

Had a lovely if not rather frenetic wizz round the Bower Ashon Illustration Degree show.

always lovely often inspirational.

and an even more inspirational walk home with the human story generator.

Holland

Just back from a short holiday.

and luckily turned a corner in Utrecht to find it’s where Dick Bruna lives!

and then wandered round a town called Harlem to find a comic book festival,

god how ace is Holland

may have to be my second choice for the world cup.!

I am aware that the world of blogging has been abandoned for a few weeks and I thank Mrs Googly eyes for the reminder, and encouragement ..without further ado off into another blast..

with short break for Glastonbury!

(hope i dont get sued for image but its just a fraction of the ticket and done with love and respect to the little rabbit)
