About

Tim was born in Surrey in 1977, and is a freelance illustrator.

Tim is an award winning illustrator who has a real passion for character design and storytelling. His illustration work has been described as ‘story telling with whimsical charm, warmth and humour’ and he’d like to think that is pretty true!

To date, he has illustrated over 50 children’s books. Included in his folio are the hugely popular ‘Magic Pet Shop’ series (Hachette), the ‘20 to Bedtime’ series written by Mark Sperring (Scholastic), the ‘Big Shark, Little Shark’ series by Anna Membrino (Random House Kids) the young Fiction series ‘Lizzie & Lucky’ by Megan Rix (Puffin) and the ‘This Is Me’ books by CBeebies star George Webster (Scholastic).

More recently, Tim has illustrated ‘ Michael the Amazing Mind Reading Sausage Dog’ by Terrie Chilvers (Firefly) which has been chosen as part of Blue Peter’s brand new Book Club (CBBC) !

Tim has also produced character design work for animation companies ‘Big Bad Boo’ and ‘Spin Master’

He lives with his wife by the sea on Hayling Island with their pets Baxter and Alfie.
