Pink Food Poster Illustrations
I decided to create these two pink food poster illustrations because I will be teaching another online illustration class with a Taiwanese illustration website called “School of Creative” (創作私庫). This time I’m going to teach a short class about how...

Lees Of Scotland Macaringues Package Illustration. Just right before Christmas, I was shopping in Tesco and picked up their Christmas magazine. Low and behold I finally saw the packaging illustration I completed for Lee’s Food, and specifically their...
The Tell Tale Heart Book Cover Design Illustration
“The Tell Tale Heart” book is one of my favourites from Edgar Allan Poe. If you know one or two things about me then you know I’m a big fan of horror, creepy and scary films, novel and stories. This contrasts greatly with my illustration work which...
Chinese Spices Illustrations

🗺️ New Map Alert!
My Seoul Map Illustration is officially Map No. 56 in my illustrated map series.
As many of you know, I’ll be travelling to Seoul next month for the Seoul Illustration Fair, and I couldn’t be more excited. July is looking incredibly busy (and honestly a little scary!), but I know it’s going to be an amazing experience.
This Seoul map illustration features some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, neighbourhoods, and hidden gems. Creating illustrated city maps has become one of my favourite ways to celebrate the places and cultures that inspire me.
Every map I create is a love letter to a place and to the people who call it home. Through each illustrated map, I try to capture the unique character, memories, and stories that make a city special.
I can’t wait to visit Seoul and share more of my Seoul Illustration Fair adventure with you soon. 🇰🇷✨

🚨 New book collection alert! 🚨
I just received the sample copies of one of my favourite book collections — the All Aboard jigsaw puzzle train series! 🚂✨
The four trains are:
🌿 Jungle Train
🚜 Farm Train
📖 Story Train
🎄 Christmas Train
I’m so excited to finally see the English editions of these super cute books! 💕
Huge thanks to the lovely @Townhouse_books for trusting me with this collection, and to my wonderful agent Will at @Advocate01 for managing the whole creative journey from start to finish.
You can now purchase Jungle Train on Amazon:
https://amzn.eu/d/04mxLm22
And because I know so many of you love buying books directly from me at fairs and conventions, I’m going to try my very best to see if I can get extra copies from the publisher in the future! 🤞✨
Honestly, seeing all four books together makes me ridiculously happy. They look even cuter in real life! 🥹🚂💕

First morning in my new studio space. 🏠✨
After years of working from a corner of my kitchen, I finally have a little space to call my own.
It’s still a work in progress, but I’m so happy to have a place for drawing, dreaming and creating new books.
My little green room. 💚

Wow! What a weekend! 💕
(A slightly longer post today, so thank you for reading!)
Unfortunately, I had to cancel Saturday’s market due to the awful weather. As a paper goods seller, I simply couldn’t risk my products being damaged. It was a difficult decision, especially after hearing from so many lovely repeat customers who were planning to come and visit me. Your support means so much. ❤️
Thankfully, Sunday brought much better weather! It was still quite windy (I think a few stickers may have flown away! 😆), but it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and meet some new ones too.
Mirage (@kiteVisionary) made sure I didn’t go hungry, as usual, and it was lovely catching up after his recent adventures.
Mel (@Jjilpapercrafts) brought along some craft papers I’d been curious about, which have already inspired ideas for future products. Thank you for being so thoughtful!
Karen (@Khollandster) and her daughter stopped by, and it’s always such a joy to see them. We first met at Hyper Japan two years ago and have kept crossing paths at events ever since.
Pree and Tanu (@pretaeats) were another wonderful surprise! We first met at the Illustrators’ Fair two years ago, and I was so happy they found me at the market again yesterday. Time really does fly!
A publisher once asked me:
“What’s it like trading at markets?”
Honestly, it’s this.
The conversations, the familiar faces, and the friendships that grow over the years. My customers make me feel seen, appreciated, and supported, and I love watching their own journeys unfold too.
This is why I keep coming back to markets and events. They’re where I find my people—the people who cheer me on, support my little business, and make this creative journey so special.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being part of it. ❤️
✨ Liv
