I love to illustrate. It’s a life long passion that has become my dream job. I've been drawing and colouring since I could hold a crayon and a professional visual storyteller for over 20 years. I believe my artistic versatility and my positive work ethic towards all my creative collaborations, has blessed me with this wonderful illustration career. I love creating characters through emotions and actions, capturing the essence of a story or moment, and bringing them to life. 
My first inde book venture was "Bertie Beetle's Birthday Surprise", and I was both the author and illustrator - I was only 8, and I still have the book.

 

On a typical day, you might find me sketching, colouring, finishing up a final image or enjoying life; hanging out with my family at home in sunny Brisbane, Australia. As a self-confessed cat lover, sci-fi and horror movie fan, and hopeless romantic, I spend my spare time indulging them all.

 

I am lucky to have had the experience in a varied career; Working as an in-house graphic artist and illustrator for metropolitan and local newspapers, advertising Agencies and with a variety of publishers and independent authors, working on fiction and non-fiction illustrations.
