My book cover design for ‘Proud Women: A collection of fierce women who are proud to represent the LGBTQ+ community’, celebrates diversity, empowerment, joy, friendship… and love!
A beautiful story about a shy little owl that can’t do math. I amagined my character, Gulp as neurodiverse and her best friend Momo the lizard is her best ally and support. The illustrations show the tender relationship between the two friends.
‘What is Love’ is a beautiful, heartfelt story teaching children about the qualities of love. Using the animal kingdom’s ‘soul mates’ as the characters in the story, readers learn important social and emotional skills. Wolves, gibbons, owls, swans and other animals that mate for life, show young readers how to care, how to share and how to show love for another.

Based on a beautiful short story written by Lilla Rogers ‘Bananas for Jamilla’ tells the tale of Title (a little tamarin monkey) and his friend Jamilla. A unique challenge in this book was to create a non-binary children’s book character and express the unconditional love that Title has for his friend – he ALWAYS wants to be with Jamilla and gets up to plenty of mischief sneaking into her backpack…

An animated editorial illustration on the impact of adopting a vegan lifestyle and better farming practices on climate change.
As part of my work for Lilla Roger’s online course ‘Illustrating Children's Books’, I chose to illustrate the text ‘Grandma’s Garden’ by Zoe Tucker. It is a sweet, emotional story that beautifully evokes the feeling of seasons passing and the circle of life. I imagined the main character, Coral, to be a thoughtful, sensitive and somewhat otherwordly little girl and Grandma Pearl to be a bit of an eccentric gypsy with a wild past. You can see here how much the characters evolved over the five weeks.

The Kiewa Valley is special to me because, no matter what the season, this gorgeous valley in the Australian Alps has me enchanted with its ever-changing colour palette. From snow capped peaks in winter to golden leaves in autumn, it is my favourite place in the world to hike with my dog.
