A new book is coming!!
My latest book illustration project is nearly out in the world. Every Rock Has a Story: An A to Z of Australian Geology, written by geologist and teacher, Kitty van Cuylenburg, and published by CSIRO Publishing is available for pre-order now!
This book makes geology fun! It is filled with facts, history and insights into Australia's amazing geology. Every Rock Has a Story: An A to Z of Australian Geology explores our incredible landscapes and offers captivating insights into our exceptional continent. Discover pink diamonds and stromatolites, the Great Artesian Basin and Uluru, and granite rocks formed billions of years ago. With stunning illustrations, engaging text and packed with fun facts, this is the perfect book for anyone curious about Australian geology.
I had such a great time working on this book and learning about many of the amazing geological features and processes around Australia. And, of course, the rocks! I discovered that I love illustrating rocks. I hope this book will not only be fun and interesting for those who already know they like rocks but – as it did for me – also help convert others into rock lovers.

Sensational Australian Animals is out!
I'm incredibly excited to tell you that Sensational Australian Animals, written by Stephanie Owen Reeder, illustrated by me and published by CSIRO Publishing is officially out in stores today!
Wow! My first published children's picture book is finally here! It has been an amazing privilege and dream come true to have the chance to work on this book with Stephanie and the crew at CSIRO Publishing. I enjoyed every single minute of it, and I hope you like it.
The book covers more than 145 truly astounding animals – from sharp-eyed whale sharks to sticky-bellied green tree frogs. It showcases the strange things these creatures can do with their eyes, ears, noses, mouths and skin! Meet unique Australian birds that laugh, frogs that quack, fish that sing, mammals that glow in the dark, seahorses disguised as seaweed, turtles that breathe through their bums and lizards that clean their eyes with their tongues!
