I discovered this illustrator in the london metro where she won a competition to  be on the cover. she did an illustration about the animals that she sees on her way to work. I think i have a real soft spot for animal illustrations they seem to crop up where ever i go or whatever i do. 
I love the childlike style of her illustrations and the soft colours that she uses. i think that they are simple but effective and they make me want to put them up on my kitchen cupboards so i can look at them all the time.
