Claire has been instrumental in making my dream come true of having a book illustrated and published. She is open to my suggestions and has always been accommodating and come up with some fabulous ideas. Her hand drawn illustrations are always amazing and I’m delighted to have found her. I’m so excited about my Christmas book.

The picture of our little rescue dog Bea done by Claire is absolutely gorgeous. She has really captured her personality, and the details, like her little teeth, make the picture just so amazing. It is in pride of place in our home and will remain so forever. Thank you so much, Claire, for capturing our little dog in the best way. The best gift we could receive.

Claire has been an absolute angel by taking her time to explain the different processes from my initial precious rhyming words and turning them into pictures ideas, working with my thought process and then coming up with some additional ideas (such as incorporating family traditions and photos) and producing incredible illustrations. She’s gently guided me through the process of uploading and getting to publication which I had no idea about. It’s been an incredible journey and I’m so grateful to have found her and utilise her skills and knowledge not only as an illustrator but all the other things you need to do and obtain to actually produce a book. She’s amazing 🤩
