After many years working as a designer and studio manager in the UK greeting card industry, Clare Fennell took the plunge and decided to follow her lifelong dream and illustrate children's books. She ousted her husband from his beloved study and converted it to a rather messy studio filled with children's picture books, cats, cushions, pencils and paint. Today she is joyfully collaging the contents of her imagination into children's books and loving every moment. Hayley Down is the author of children's books including i Explore Space and My Pad Bible Stick & Colour. Clare Fennell is a UK based illustrator with 15 years of experience. Clare works mainly in collage, recycling bits of magazine, fabrics, newspapers and anything else she can find! The collage is mixed with painted elements and finished digitally. Her imagery has a quirky, fun appeal and is particularly suited to picture books, greetings cards, stationery and editorial. Clare works from home in her studio, where her two children and two cats constantly inspire her.
