Each location I illustrated was chosen for its significance in Ballarat. My favourite part of creating this book was the chance to sit, draw and create each scene around town.
This book was written from the very place it is designed around. I love that I’ve created a book for Ballarat while being here to capture it’s stories and create a world for new characters to live in.
Supporting local is a core value of mine. Every book is printed locally by Revolution Print. Meaning my money goes back into the local economy with each sale.
