not quite finished yet!! adding a bit more day by day!
An early love of books ensured the start of my career would be in illustration...here you will find examples of my work..of many different kinds...some commercial and some personal projects..the delight of illustrating for me is the variety of subjects and in the challenge of transforming the written into the visual..
Some favourite books :
Only the Best. Meguido Zola . Julia
Macrae Books 1981
My

on my friends..
