The Mega Magic Hair Swap picture book

An exciting commission came through to produce a picture book for Studio Press, an imprint of Bonnier Books UK. This was a ‘mega’ urgent job (excuse the pun) and a passion project of singer/presenter celebrity Rochelle Humes of S Club and The Saturdays fame. I worked closely with editor Jasmine Richards and the amazing illustrator Rachel Suzanne. Working round the clock we produced a completed picture book from start to finish in under two months!

I mapped out and storyboarded the insides, drew up thumbnail sketches and then art directed the illustrator from roughs to final artwork, oh and designed the cover. Buy here!

You may see the cover work in progress below . . .

I sketched up various options for the cover so the Rochelle had lots to choose from.
