During the summer break from the MA in Children’s Book
Illustration I have been busy sketching on a farm for my next project. I spent four wonderful hours drawing and observing these lovely ladies -
Tamworth sows plus geese and goats on a hot –
yes hot, day here in Wiltshire! By spending time on the farm, ideas for stories are coming fast and furious. The more I visit, I see the distinct ways of each animal, their
hierarchies and peculiar habits and this all goes towards the story line. I
return home in such a good mood too. Sitting with these animals is a real tonic to modern life!
