MEET MARIE...
Hi there, so a little about me, first off, I love moss, I wish I was A teeny tiny person so I could live in a cosy, soft moss house, eat biscuits and drink tea from acorn hats.
My very first love though will always be illustration, if I couldn't draw I am not sure who I would be, I could draw before I could write, (now I think of it we probably all draw before we write...anyway), willingly lost in worlds ruled by bizarre characters on exhilarating journeys.
I would dream of infinite amounts of paper so I never had to stop drawing.
so now, I collect moss, drink tea and illustrate for those special little explorers who see the world with pure imagination and curiosity, where magic, mystery and mayhem rein...children.
children's books are a window through which children see new, scary and exciting worlds, where they can be anything, conquer anything and dream their biggest dreams.
