These images are all self promotional work. I love working in black and white and I love detail so I really enjoyed making these pictures.
My name is Marion and I'm a creative sort who has painted and drawn all sorts of weird and wonderful things over the years, but my great love is for storytelling, especially for children. So I am an illustrator and a writer of stories.
I have recently completed my MA in children's book illustration at Cambridge School of Art which amongst other things has helped me to really get in touch with the way I want to make pictures. The themes I have tended to explore in my work are those of fostering creativity and breaking down self-imposed barriers. The books I draw inspiration from always seem to have an element of the extraordinary taking place within an ordinary setting and this is something I like to happen in my work too.
Here you can see some of my latest illustrations; there will be more published work to see in the coming year in the form of several chapter books and hopefully picture books too. If you would like to get in touch with me then please contact either me or my agent Elizabeth Roy.
