Hi! Hello! Happy Almost-Weekend :D This here is a character study. More I cannot say at this moment. I wish you all a spooky day.

I love these fantastic illustrations by John Joven for a new edition of Jack and the Beanstalk from Usborne Books.

The fantastic "Commissioning Illustration: The Self-Publisher's Guide" is now available digitally for the first time! It takes authors through the process of working with a children's illustrator, with an emphasis on collaboration, and includes a detailed project plan and pricing examples. https://shop.hireillo.com

I also make kids illustrations, like stickers and book covers <3 if you need something fun that kids certifiably think are fun, email me at:

Please share, I need commissions to make it through the month and would really love to get new clients to delight! (:

"My latest wall art for Hill View Academy. The principal had a very specific brief which was to produce a fun and vibrant scene that celebrates the school's values and Huddersfield's history and history makers." - Danny Deeptown / https://hireillo.com/crA

Recently I shared a portfolio piece, a book cover from the (entirely made-up) series 'DeepWoods Academy for the Magically Inept.' Here's a sneak peek of the second book in the series.

More Bardsey Island sketches from my sketchbooks. It was so lush to take time to sit and paint this summer. We had a mix of weather, and I like the second sketch of the sheep hiding from the blazing sun under a wreck of a JCB, barely there in my sketchbook because it was just so bright.

Raumfahrer Wilson im Gespräch mit einem Nashorn.

A story in three parts :D

More shenanigans from these little ones. I love them so much. And i truly am sorry if i ever danced all over someone's drawing, and did not say sorry.

These little softies keep doing their best, mucking up, and digging in their heels like we all do at times
I really like developing this story and these characters, they're so messy. Parents of multiple small children, I see you!

Raumfahrer Wilson ist unterwegs.
