Where does the time go? I can't believe we're in March all ready and my last post was January. Since then I have completed a book called Mountain Tales of Norway, which has a few naughty trolls in it, and about 230 illustrations for a German education book.

Good news for those of you who don't have an iPad (like me pffft!), The Hippo, the Rhino, the Elephant and Me is now available in the app store for the iPhone! Yaaay!

A few questions...

The lovely Jo at Ink Robin asked me a few questions.

See them here. :o)

2012 has been a great time for my illustration. I've been busy all year working on lots of exciting projects, books, apps, logos and more books. As always I thank you for your continued support and interest in my work and please check back to see new work in the coming year.

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Best wishes and scribbles,
Lisa xx

It's here!

Just in time for Christmas, the iPad story i worked on was released in the iTunes app store today. It's a lovely story written by the people at Ink Robin, about a little girl and her three unusual best friends. There are lots of interactive bits that spin, pop, and go 'Weeeeeeeeee!'. It will keep little people (and not so little people, ahem,) amused for a while.
You can buy the app here.

It's on it's way...

Visit Ink Robin to see a little more.

Hello Autumn.

I'm not great as the seasons shift from sunny to overcast with the smell of Autumn in the air. I'm at my happiest when i can smell Spring arriving. At the moment i can smell coffee. Strong coffee. I'm at my desk, my pencils are very sharp (see right), and I'm surrounded by a mountain of scribbles that will only grow higher.

I'm unable to post what I'm working on at the mo but I'm excited to say i have some great things to work on until things get sparkly in December. I'll post them as soon as i get the nod.

I hope everyone has had a great Summer and your mittens are ready for action!

Gordon Scott Characters

Something I've already blogged about but, last year i worked on some characters for the children's shoe department at Gordon Scott. I hadn't seen what they looked like until i was sent these photos from the fantastic design agency, Dalziel and Pow.  Here's how they look in store.

The Hippo, the Rhino, the Elephant and Me.

I can now reveal a sneeky peek of something I've been illustrating over the last month. Here are a few sketches from the upcoming  interactive story book The Hippo, the Rhino, the Elephant and Me.Written by the lovely folk over at Ink Robin, it should be available in the autumn. I can't wait to see it!

You can read more about it here - sneak preview and here -work-in-progress

Dragons.

Tis' the season of Royalness and Summer Fairs. Tomorrow the doodle shop is at the Eastcote Gardens Jubilee Summer Fair, where i will probably be scribbling at the stall.

Ummm, i haven't done any drawings of the Queenie, but i have drawn a dragon. He has clocked off his fire breathing duties for the weekend and is on his way to his first Jubilee party.

I hope you all have a great one! x
