Illustration of a grey wolf wearing a cosy green outfit, holding a red book, and looking over a windy, autumnal landscape as she stands next to a tree without leaves. Leaves are blowing across the scene. In the foreground there is a dark wooden fence. In the background, there are hills, a white cottage with chimney smoke, trees, birds flying, and white fluffy clouds. Illustration of a brown mouse, surrounded by pink and white flowers, holding a pink book titled "By the River". He is sat on a green leaf floating along the river. Illustration of a badger wearing a blue apron, watering an oak sapling with a green watering can. There are roots underneath. Illustration of a raccoon sheltering from the rain in a forest. There is a warm camping stove with a steaming kettle on top, and mushrooms scattered around.

I've been tending to a bit of burnout and the creative block that usually follows. I'm putting it down to a variety of things: general state of the world (gen*cide, climate emergency, AI takeover etc), the energy I've been pouring into my current picture book, and uncertainty within freelancing.

Digital illustration of a young cricket boy going down a pebble road on his way to school. His mom is waving him off from a blue door in a tree stump, and the scene is a forest floor. Digital illustration of animal characters who are mailmen, with a bigger shot of a panda blowing in his post horn and then smaller animals who look like they are walking out of it, featuring an orange cat, an anteater, a giraffe, a hedgehog, a badger, a turtle, a mouse, a rabbit, a rhino, a rooster, a duck and a guinea pig. Digital illustration of four kids having fun on their sleds on a snowy hill. One boy and a girl are coming down, the boy is scared and the girl has a big smile on her face. Their black and white dog in a yellow sweater is following them. Two other kids are staying behind and waiting for their turn. The boy in the back has a smug facial expression while the girl is looking at the boy with concern. Digital illustration of a group of kids with their teacher on a visit to a botanical garden. In the foreground there's a boy using a magnifying glass to take a better look at a flower and in the background there's three kids reading a book with pictures, a boy and a girl looking at a butterfly, one girl reading a sign in front of plants, and another looking up at her teacher with amazement at his story.
