I believe that there is nothing more interesting than listening to my clients' dreams, brainstorming ideas and, through constructive feedback, make their stories come alive!

I also love to help artists find their own special spark by making sure their characters, settings and colour choice stand out and perfectly harmonize together.

When I work with my clients I don't just focus on the illustrations but I love to look after their manuscripts, help the authors refine their stories, and make sure their narratives flow smoothly with perfect rhythm and vitality - it is incredibly important to see a book as a whole.

I help authors select the right book size for their stories and POD services and I work hands on on their books layout and text formatting.

I believe my strength lies in creating creative storyboards: picture books can be very detailed and have many full page spreads or they can be slightly simpler with a mix of spot illustrations, vignettes and full page illustrations. No two books are the same!

Here are some examples of my character designs, book layout designs and storyboard/cover sketches.
