Painting Poems – A Sneak Peek & Worksheet

Here is a peep at the children’s poetry book I’ve illustrated for Julie Anna Douglas. It’s full of lovely poems and pictures and I think it will also appeal to grown up children. We hope it will inspire you play with words and art.

Here is ‘The Dragon’s Eyes’

We are planning a series of activity sheets to go with the book. They will be available to download FREE.  Here is a taster. What do you think are the rules for looking after a dragon?

Merry Christmas 2018

Merry Christmas.  A couple of Christmas presents from me to you.

Click here to download and print out the skiing bear.  You can print it out on card, or print it onto paper and glue the pieces onto thin card (an empty cereal packet would be ideal). You’ll need brads (also called split pins or paper fasteners) to fasten the pieces together, but if you don’t have any you can just glue or tape them in place, or you can thread some wool or thin cord through the holes and tape it either side.
