The Import

Here's a link to a lovely little feature about me and my illustrations.
The Import talks all things creative, and as part of the 'weheart' family, is definitely a blog worth bookmarking if you haven't already done so.
In less than a week I will be the first in a long line of new guest posters on the blog. I'll link them here once they're up and running.
