Jamie Littler's Illustration Blog

I am a UK-based award-winning children's book illustrator and comic artist, which is certainly lucky, really, as I do enjoy having a good ol' draw.

Here's some collected Jane Pinny character design sketches I did for the recently released 'The Secret Diary of Jane Pinny - Victorian House Maid and Accidental Detective', written by Philip Ardagh and published by Nosy Crow. 

I had lots of lots of these in my sketchbook, but I think these were my favourite.

'A Secret Diary of Jane Pinny: Victorian House Maid and Accidental Detective' is published today! WHAT HO!

Written by the ever-bearded Philip Ardagh and illustrated by ever-beardless me! Published by Nosy Crow and in cahoots with the wonderful National Trust. (Nice photo of the book on the table surrounded by cool stuff - @PhilipArdagh)

Hurrah! The announcement advert for the upcoming book series I have been busy illustrating, 'Witch School' (written by the awesome Em Lynas) is on the back cover of The Bookseller. Look at it with your peepers, why not?! (Photos courtesy of Sarah McIntyre )

Here’s some of the (many!) rough sketches and designs I did in preparation for our Nosy Crow/National Trust book ‘The Secret Diary of John Drawbridge: Medieval Knight in Training’. The book is out now (first of a series!), written by Philip Ardagh!
