... but my studio is nice and cool and there's lots of work going on in here! I've just started a new book for Caterpillar Books and I'm really enjoying working on the roughs this week. Here's a sneaky preview - it'll no doubt all change before publication but I like this little chap on his pirate ship!
Last Youth Club for the summer tomorrow night as well and I'm planning to make fruity lemonade sodas with ice-cream for the kids, complete with old-fashioned stripey paper straws (wow, they're a lot more expensive than the plastic ones!) for a retro feel!
I've been painting this summer as well (pictures and the peeling window frames) So enjoying indulging my longing to paint my beautiful surroundings here in South Wales and finally I've made time to do it. This is with a view to exhibiting later in the year or early next year but I have a lot to do to get a body of work together in the meantime. Will post some pictures later - very different style for me!
After and alongside this book will be my next one for Little Tiger Press, the title still to be revealed to me! This will be ready for Frankfurt Book Fair in October. And my fourth trip to Edinburgh Festival in August to do an event based on I Want my Mummy. I'm designing a craft activity based on dragons and have found a great way to upcycle shower scrunchies to make smoke!!
Hello Alison, my name is Haydee. I need to contact you in respect of some illustrations. Could you be so kind to provide me with your email? or were can I find it?
