Throughout this year, I’ve been working on new and exciting portfolio projects while exploring #KidLit. Here's a cover I illustrated of Gary Paulsen’s middle-grade fiction book, Hatchet. Thanks to Lucie at Luddington Creative for the art direction and support as I expand my portfolio with new ideas.

We're looking forward to a summer packed full of events. Put some dates in your diary to see our artists performing from Portstewart to Bangor and Glenarm to Cork via this link. #summerevents #whatson #opera niopera.com/performances...
