• Hil-in-style-of-durerMrs Woolcock contacted me on Twitter. Her class follow my drawing and she asked if I could show how to draw mountains as they are just beginning a topic on mountains.

    In the first video I have gone back to the great 16th century artist and printmaker, Albrecht Dürer, to see how he would draw mountains. This is quite a romantic type of scene. More about Durer here: 

    The second video is a little bit easier. Have fun Mrs Woolcock’s Class. Hope this helps your mountain topic.



  • This video shows how to draw a Robo Kat from my book series, Dark Claw, which is a sort of Star Wars epic with Cats and mice – or Kats and Muss – Muss are anything from Mice and rats and hamsters to chinchillas!

    You can enjoy me reading the animated version of the story on my Storytime Channel.

  • There are three things you can do to make your handwriting clearer and easier to read right now.

    1. Get a pen that suits your hand and your writing style.

    2. You probably have picked up a million bad habits with your joined up writing, so union your letters and let your words be understood.

    3. Take your time. Writing is not a race. The idea is to leave marks that you and others can interpret as words. Even so they can be read in 1000 years time!
