When I started illustrating my first picture book with a publisher I had no idea how the process would work and how involved they would be, so I've made this video to give you some into the behind the scenes of the process (they were amazing and lovely, by the way)!
I'll be making a video soon that dives into the creative side of things, like how I created the colour palette and decided on the layouts.
