Reblogged this on Pan Dulce and commented:
Sweet! So whimsical. How exactly does one begin to draw whimsically though? That’s what I want to know… I love the style.

  Oh thank you so much for the reblog! Ahh whimsy, I’m glad you thought that! I got all these new art materials that resparked me lately… so that’s a good excuse to spend some money at the art shop!

(All sold now thank you!) It’s been awhile between birds - too long in fact! Feeling a bit rusty but hoping to do a few more of these over the next few weeks to get back into bird painting mode. These guys for sale for $30 plus shipping - small original watercolours of - top left a double barred finch sold, top right a spotted pardalote sold, bottom left a pale yellow robin sold and bottom right an awkward looking Maggie. Just write sold with which one and I’ll send the Etsy listing via a DM. Mental note : need to find some actually flat background paper. 🤔 #birdsofinstagram #watercolour #tinyoriginal

The kids these school holidays... impossible to get to sleep at a decent hour, then up for more shenanigans far too early for my liking. (This spread from Love Was Hiding by @jenloakes and published by @windyhollow last year felt like the right capture of this!). #picturebook #kidsillustration #lovewashiding #bunniesofinstagram #nosleeptilschoolstarts

Back after a lovely beach week with pals (and many 👧🏽👶🏻🧒🏼) and it reminds me to make sure I make time for recharging, like a lizard on a sun rock knows how to do, something I forgot to to much of in 2018. Good for mojo, clarity and recharge. So here’s to big or small travel times, drinking wine/playing board games and of course - naps. #watercolour #lizardsofinstagram #illustrationgram #illustrationforkids

I listen to podcasts ALL DAY so it was so nice to be interviewed about picture book making by my friend and often author of the books I’ve worked on, @taniamccartney ! I’ve added a link to the interview in my profile if you are an illustrator looking to get started in picture books xx #Repost @taniamccartney ・・・ I’m thrilled to reveal some secret squirrel business--my long-long-looooong time coming podcast--The Happy Book. Chapter One is live--the first podcast in a ten-part series. Head to the link in my profile for more. #childrensbooks #podcasts #writing #thehappybook #kidsbooks #publishing #publication #emergingcreators
