Outlaw

Having fun drawing this character – a heroic outlaw with freakishly long limbs.

🎉 I'm beyond thrilled to be on the longlist for the @thetimes / @chickenhousebooks Children's Fiction Prize, which was just announced (link in bio). Margot and the Maelstrom is my first bash at a novel, so this is a huge boost for my writing. After so long dreaming up - then typing up - this story, I can't quite believe it became a complete manuscript, let alone one that is up for this prize, but there it is. Congratulations to all of the other longlisted authors - so many intriguing titles on that list! I hope to share more about the story soon, but for now, thank you @chickenhousebooks for making my day! 🐔 😊 #TimesChickenHouse #ChildrensFiction #ChickenHouse #TheTimes #fiction #childrensbooks #author #reading #writing #storytelling #novel #books

What a treat! 🍭 Spent the evening at the launch of @simonarmitage_official's Hansel & Gretel: A Nightmare In Eight Scenes - handsomely illustrated by @hicksjenkins and published by @designfortoday. Great to see a collection of Clive's inspirations for the project and related work leading up to it, and Simon's reading of his text was of course a fantastic sugar rush of poetry. Thank you @st.indractpress for the ticket and @peter_waddington for the great company. #HanselandGretel #fairytales #BrothersGrimm #Grimm #nightmares #witch #sweets #poetry #poet #illustration #SimonArmitage #CliveHicksJenkins

The Owl and the Pussy-Cat A nonsense poem that means a lot to me! Even so, I've never tried to draw my own take on The Owl and the Pussy-Cat before - so here it is. 🦉🐈 🐖🦃 #TheOwlandthePussycat #nonsensepoem #poetry #nurseryrhyme #EdwardLear #owl #pussycat #cat #runcible #runciblespoon #peagreenboat #honey #plentyofmoney #fivepoundnote #nonsense #drawing #draw #illustration #childrensbookillustration #illustrator #cartoon #cartoonist #cartooning #digitalillustration #storytelling #character #characterdesign
