I worked closely with the lovely Hilary Kearney (aka Girl Next Door Honey) and the amazing HarperCollins team to illustrate the wonderful “Little Book of Bees - An Illustrated Guide to the Extraordinary Lives of Bees”. There are approximately 70 individual illustrations in total depicting many bee species, bee-friendly flowers, honey, beekeeping equipment and more.

“A lovely, informative book of all things bee - from evolution and communication, to honey, beekeeping and saving the bees - all in a beautifully illustrated gift book.”

I was thrilled to illustrate a third puzzle for UK small business Bloom Puzzles. This time the subject was enjoying a cosy baking day in a beautiful country-style English kitchen, with the centre piece being a traditional AGA oven. I drew on memories of baking with my mum throughout the years and included lots of nostalgic baking tools and fresh-out-of-the-oven homemade treats.

“Relax into the joy of an afternoon spent baking! Breathe in the smell of sugar and spices, taste the anticipation of a delicious treat still warm from the oven. The perfect puzzle for anyone who enjoys the Great British Bake Off or who just loves cake!”

Following the same formula as previous puzzles “The Potting Shed” and “The Beach Hut”, I illustrated each element separately in graphite and watercolour before later assembling the design digitally.

I was commissioned by small British puzzle business, “Bloom Puzzles” to create a series of garden illustrations that evoke a warm summer's day spent pottering in an English country garden, enjoying the scents of the garden in full bloom and listening to the gentle buzz of the bees.

I illustrated each element individually before assembling a lively design centred around the garden shed. The contrast between larger objects like the garden gate and beehive to the smaller creepy crawlies hopefully makes for a fun and challenging puzzle with some surprises to be found along the way.

There was over 50 individual elements to illustrate, including a larger “potting shed” centrepiece illustration, lettering for the title and hand-drawn annotations for the flowers.

It even has its own Spotify playlist to help set the mood as you puzzle over the pieces.

The second puzzle design created for small UK puzzle brand, Bloom Puzzles. This time the brief was to celebrate the Great British Seaside, and create a sunny seaside holiday in a puzzle! with a cosy beach hut as the centrepiece and vibrant colour palette.

We discussed what makes British beaches so iconic and memorable as well as the local plants and wildlife. I also drew on personal memories of time spent at the beach paddling, rock-pooling and beachcombing for inspiration.

Following the same formula as previous puzzle “The Potting Shed”, I illustrated each element separately in graphite and watercolour before later assembling the design digitally.

I was thrilled to design a tall tower of 30 individual characterful dinosaurs for Memories of Growing Up’s “Talltape” range. Each dino is unique and annotated with his/her scientific name.

“Talltape, the portable children’s height chart, helps you to keep an on-going record of your child’s height from birth all the way to adulthood. The perfect alternative to recording measurements on a wall or door, Talltape won’t get left behind or painted over – it just stays with you. As featured in the Daily Mail, New York Metro Parents and Baby London Magazine.“

The dino Talltape is available to buy here in my Etsy shop.
