A little bit about me
HELLO
My name is Daryl and I am an illustrator and author of children's picture books. I live close to The Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew just outside London. I also enjoy illustrating food & wines, all sorts of animals and birdies, flowers and other kinds of whimsical stuff.
I mostly work in watercolour and pen & ink incorporating enhanced illustration techniques using Photoshop.
I occasionally guest tutor at Central St Martins University of the Arts London on the Enhanced Illustration short courses run by Bill Wright.
I work mainly at the kitchen table with my buddies Mungo and Raffs for company.
