Hello, I’m Alex. A full time freelance creative based near Swindon. I live with my young family in the Wiltshire countryside along with the soppiest ginger furball cat and a fabulous pair of Pugs. When not out on storytelling visits or working with school groups I can often be found in my studio creating work in a myriad of media from paint and pencil to charcoal and ‘Procreate’. As an illustrator I love the opportunity to work with both new and established authors (Everyone has a story to tell and it’s really inspiring to hear different people’s tales). For over 5 years I have been bringing their stories and characters to life with over 50 books published and hopefully many more to come. Over the years I have gained experience of different paths to publication and can help prepare and edit books ready for publication using ‘Adobe InDesign’ software
