Lionel Messi!
A dream job?
I don’t talk about work as much as I used to on this newsletter but I wanted to share this with you.
I spent the best part of 2025 working on this book a bit if I’m honest with you it was a struggle! And I’m still recovering! It’s 100 pages of full colour art, and the project tested me in so many ways.
I wanted to give up on 3 separate occasions.
But people around me helped me pull through, and so did my agent and the publisher. And while it was hard I’m so happy to hold this book in my hands. It’s the 13th book I’ve illustrated that’s is out in the world, or atleast available for preorder. (Get a copy for a soccer fan in your life, or use it to create the next generation of soccer fan)
I was saying it’s my 13th book in the world since I started illustrating books in 2021.
If you have any questions about this book or about illustrating books feel free to reply this email with the question.
