Starfish swimming in the sea,
Mermaids singing just for me,
Sing a gentle lullaby,
While flying fish dance in the sky.

Every book starts with an idea, a spark, a moment of inspiration, and travels through many hands until it ends its journey with a child. This blog will track the journey of one book, written by James Mayhew, and illustrated by Jackie Morris.

Wonderful to see your sketches too. There is something about a line drawing that gets me. Probably because I'm a Beardsley fan! I love Canaletto's drawings too so seeing yours is great.
But I love your drawings as much as your paintings. I'm going to have to do your life story as an artist monograph one day so that people will know what a fabulous artist you are.
