Thank you @openartspaces for having us trade with you on Saturday! 🥰💕

And of course, a BIG fluffy thank you to everyone who came to say hello and supported our little cat-filled universe! 🐱✨

I hope your new kawaii goodies are now sitting happily in their new homes, making you smile every time you look at them. 🥹💕

Your support means the absolute world to me — especially when you stop at the table, have a little chat, and tell me which cat is your favourite. 😂

Thank you for keeping my silly little creative world alive. 🐾💖

See you at the next market! ✨

Found my little Jungle Train in the wild! 🚂🌴🐯💛

I popped into Waterstones in Kingston and there it was… MY BOOK! 🥹✨

There’s something so special (and slightly surreal 😂) about spotting a book you illustrated sitting on a real bookstore shelf. I may or may not have stood there staring at it for a little too long. 😆

Jungle Train is a super fun little book with a 40-piece jigsaw puzzle inside, which you can put together to create the cutest jungle train adventure! 🐒🦁🐘🚂

So happy to see this little one out in the wild! 💛

Specials thanks to the @townhouse_books and my agent @advocateart01 ❤️💖

Dear @gallerycreamy87 , thank you so much for all the lovely gifts! I absolutely love them! 🥹❤️ And your encouraging words mean more to me than you know, especially while I’m navigating the big D word. 😂

I’ll try to find a younger Hong Kong man next time! 😆❤️

I really hope our paths cross again very soon!

This is exactly why I love trading at conventions and markets — you never know who you’re going to meet, and sometimes you meet the loveliest people. 🥺❤️

I’m so excited to finally share Cosy Café with you! ☕🐱✨

Welcome to a busy little café filled with delicious treats, afternoon tea, birthday celebrations and, of course, 150+ cosy stickers to play with!

This is the first of eight Cosy Sticker Books I’m creating with Usborne, which makes this release extra special to me. ❤️

And although it’s made for children, I secretly think these little stickers are perfect for journaling, planners, scrapbooking — or anyone who simply loves tiny cute things! 🥹✨

A huge thank you to Jenny at Usborne, who I’ve worked closely with over the past year on this and the other books in the collection. And a very special thank you to Harry, my agent at Advocate Art, for always looking after me and helping make these projects happen. 🤍

Seven more cosy adventures to come… and I can’t wait to share them with you! ☕🐱✨

🎃 A little Halloween silliness coming your way!

I’m so excited to share one of my newest books, Trick or Treat! 👻

Welcome to Scareborough, where it’s Halloween every night and the Trick or Treatorium is packed with flying cupcakes, silly surprises… and yes, fart-scented candles. 😂

I had SO much fun illustrating this one and filling the pages with ridiculous little details and visual jokes.

A big thank you to Lake Press and Advocate-Art Art for bringing me into this wonderfully silly project! 💛

Part of the Story Time series for ages 1–5, this one is definitely for little readers who enjoy their Halloween with a healthy dose of mischief. 🎃🍬

🎃👻 NEW BOOK! Cute Halloween Window Art with @usborne_books 🐈‍⬛🦇

I’m very excited to finally share one of my latest books with Usborne — Cute Halloween Window Art! 🎃

This was such a fun one to illustrate — lots of cute pumpkins, bats, ghosts and, of course, cats. 🐈‍⬛👻

Children can colour, cut out and decorate their windows with the characters, with puzzles to enjoy along the way. A lovely little screen-free Halloween activity! 🧡

And yes… I may have added a few more cats than strictly necessary. 😂

This is one of 11 books I’m currently working on with Usborne, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful ongoing collaboration. Hopefully there will be many more to come! ✨

📚 Cute Halloween Window Art is available now.

If you’re a publisher, editor, or creative team looking for an illustrator for your next project, I’d love to hear from you!

✨ New commissions are booked through my agent @advocateart01 — please get in touch with them to discuss availability and projects.

🎃 Now I just need someone to keep giving me excuses to illustrate Halloween books…

🎂 A new book is coming! 🎂

I’m so excited to share one of my newest books — a playful birthday board book with cake-shaped layers and slices revealed as you turn the pages! 🍰

Lots of rhymes, birthday fun, colourful illustrations, and even a cupcake recipe at the end. 🧁

And my lovely publishers are very sweet. 😂 When I met them back in May, they actually made me cakes for our meeting! 🎂💕

Clearly, we have a shared appreciation for cake. 😆

And this is just the beginning… we have many more yummy food books coming soon! 🍓🍪🍰

Have a yummy book waiting to be illustrated? You know where to find me — my agent @advocateart01 Art is always happy to chat! 💛

I can’t wait to share more with you!

Happy Friday! Yay! 🥳✨

I just LOVE illustrating shopfronts, and this time I’m introducing Moggy Mart — run by the sweetest, slightly hairy, slightly overweight cat, Crumpet. 🐱🛒
(And NO, he’s not a bear! 🤣🤣)

I’m having way too much fun building this little Moggy Town universe. 🏠✨

Which shop would you love to see next? 👀💭 ...
