Picturebooks:
From the Shadows (2022)
Suitable for all ages
As we follow a child’s journey through waking and sleeping hours, an imaginative dream world emerges from the shadows...
While providing a stimulus for shadow play, transient art, outdoor creativity and enquiry into nature, From the Shadows shows how adult reassurance and a growing understanding of the world enables us to overcome fears and approach our experiences with joy and curiosity once inner calm is restored.
Transient Rhymes and Jingles (2021)
Suitable for all ages
Twenty traditional nursery rhymes and jingles re-imagined through transient art!
Rain Child (2021)
Suitable for all ages
The story follows an enthusiastic child and an initially reluctant grown-up as they venture outdoors into the wild, watery landscape of a rainy day...
Created using transient methods with natural loose parts and watercolour paintings.
