I now realise I have a back log of artwork to post! Firstly I had better tie up the lose end from my previous WIP post. Here is the, now complete, painting called 'Catching Butterflies' Catching Butterflies Watercolour & Gouache 24 x 31cm I used three distinct techniques to paint this whimsical image of a stoat chasing butterflies. The first was to work wet in wet to build up the soft trees in the background, I had to be very careful not to encroach on the hat and net.

In the 1960s, illustrators suddenly became much better at painting action. Contrast this illustration of a tennis player from 1956.with this illustration of a tennis player from 1961: Bernie Fuchs for Sports Illustrated It's hard to believe two such different approaches were popular just a few years apart. They seem to come from different worlds. Prior to the 1960s, illustrators often tried to capture action the way a camera did, simply freezing the scene: Occasionally illustrators might try to

I often get asked about my creative process, especially with regards to illustrating picture books; but it's not always easy to explain everything without sitting down and talking for an hour or two. So when Cargo Publishing asked if I could give a little insight into my picture book illustration process and talk about the early concept art for The Lavender Blue Dress, I thought it would be a great opportunity to get everything down on paper and share some of my advice.

Sometimes I find it best to just strip everything back in an illustration, and focus on simple linework. These were great fun to draw, in the style of a study (though they weren't from reference) and arrange some lovely intersecting shapes with the two contrasting line colours.
