RIDBC Old MacDonald App

At the beginning of the year I worked on a series of educational apps for the Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children (RIDBC) and I am pleased to say that the first one has finally been launched! Yay! Old MacDonald is the first in a series of six apps for the iphone and ipad and it is aimed at helping children – including those who are deaf or hearing impaired – to develop their listening and language skills. Having never worked on an app before I was super excited when RIDBC approached me to illustrate them. It was such a fun project as I had not done a lot of animation before either so it was great to work in a different format. Aimed at little ones between 2 and 5, the app includes games like help Old MacDonald on the farm, create your own animal sounds and even has a karaoke section! Below are some screen shots from the app and you can see more of the illustrations in my portfolio.

Lifestyle Asia & Collaboration Project

Well it’s been a busy few weeks and there’s lots happening so I’ll need to update you all again later this week!
I can tell you however that I’ve been featured in Lifestyle Asia’s August issue.

I’m also really excited to announce that I will be teaming-up with the wonderful Perth poet Nandi Chinna as part of the Letholigica Press Art/Text/Clearinghouse collaboration project. The project aims to showcase new printed books highlighting the variety of ways artists and writers work together. Nandi’s poetry is so inspiring, I can’t wait to start working on the illustrations. I will post more info as the project develops but in the mean time check out the lethologica Press website to see our work and some of the other collaborators.

Here is one of my favorite poems by Nandi that we may include in our book:
