Books are a relatively small part of my creative output, but this product area is expanding with two new titles in development; 'The Body Urbanist's Tips for Healthy Ageing', and 'My Swiss Favourite Things'.
I've three published titles, a fantastical picture book for kids, & two photobooks focusing on my artworks.

I wrote this story a very long time ago; then, my mum drew the pictures that brought the story to life. My illustrations are a nod to her originals.
Fun doing a few book readings to kids about the same age I was when I first wrote The Little Gnome. The show-and-tell with my 'original' book, and a couple of my new illustrations as props, were a huge hit!
