Sharing a Cow
Books moooo-ve me!



Matt Ottley and I painted a requiem on the beast on Day 1. It looks dynamic, but it is so not on any brief ever mentioned before during and now after. It was difficult stopping Matt because the work was so magnificent and he just kept smiling as I kept saying, “Matt, the brief, the title, the other illustrators”…..
BUT it looks good. It’s the background and we did have to paint bits on top.
Day 2 and 3


Our SCBWI team are mooo-ving their paints all over our bovine.
Enjoying watching the dynamic young talented crew strut their stuff.

My studio is alive with ideas. Just call me the tea lady.

Looks great, guys, and a lot of fun, too! Do you have The Big Chill soundtrack playing in the background?

Well, you haven’t been MOO-ching around have you? I hope you can schMOOze someone with loads of MOOlah to buy it for charity, right?
Hope the rest of the process is sMOOthe sailing.
