My 2nd illustrated kids books Everyone Starts Small, written by Liz Garton Scanlon, is now OPEN for Pre-orders!

"Spring rains change Water from a tumbling creek to a roaring river and bring Tree nutrients it needs to stretch toward the sky. As Sun’s rays intensify, the sprouts and fruits and insects of the forest grow and bloom and develop, all working together in harmony. Even Fire, whose work causes Tree to ache from the inside, brings opportunity for the next generation of flora and fauna. Paired with the vivid, organic imagery of Dominique Ramsey, Liz Garton Scanlon’s poetic tribute to our planet’s resilience is a resonant story of life, death, and regeneration." - blurb

You can pre-order here, it will be coming to shelves officially in March 2024!

I just felt the need to create something that might be in a Wallace and Gromit episode

Digital art has been my beloved for so long - Photoshop CS6 had been both my deeply hated nemesis and beloved companion for nearly a decade, but this past year has seen an update in my technology (negating my license, boo) and negative advances in services of Adobe and, my more current system, CSP. This year I'm choosing to take a step away from digital art and focus my efforts on traditional art instead. So here's to seeing more gouache, pastel, and acrylic work in 2023!

My mother complains about my silly games

but it's never my intention

when I break things like windows or vases or toys

or the Geneva Convention

I’ve been working on some concepts for a children’s novel written by my brother. It’s about some adventurous sea faring felines who pursue a career as pirates. Here we have an underwater scene where they encounter “the void” and other mercat kinds!

Posted @withrepost • @dhachildrens Are you ready for a spooktacular Book-mas recommendation? Today's Christmas read comes from the brilliant @jonathan.stroud 🎄☠️ JS: Ghosts enjoy Christmas like everybody else, and a good spooky tale is a fine corrective to all the enforced jollity and turkey-fuelled good cheer. Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol fuses darkness and redemption to create obviously the greatest festive book of all. It should be required yearly reading (just as The Muppets’ Christmas Carol is THE essential family watch). But I’m going to go out on a limb here, and recommend M R James’s Ghost Stories as my Xmas pick. These aren’t stories about Christmas, but many of them were written for Christmas. James was Provost at Eton, and he wrote his stories specifically for reading out to friends and pupils on Christmas Eve. You’ve got vengeful spirits, demonic guardians, nasty things hiding in ash trees, white flappy shapes hunting you along deserted beaches, and many other horrors, all hinted at with impeccable Edwardian restraint. In short, they’re the best creepy stories in English and perfect for the season, so take a peek into the midwinter dark and see what’s wandering there. Happy Reading! #christmasreading #christmasbooks #christmasadvent #festiveseason #festivereading #ghoststories #spookyreads #christmasghoststories #kidslit #kidsbooksofinstagram #kidsbookstagram #childrenschristmasbooks #childrensbooks #lockwood #lockwoodandco https://www.instagram.com/p/CmJuwigrbkv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I'm delighted to share the news that my new book The Ice Children is published in the UK on 2nd November in hardback featuring artwork by Penny Neville-Lee. It is available to pre-order now!

Exclusive editions are available from Waterstones and certain indie bookshops in the UK. Or order a standard copy from @bookshop_org_uk to support your local indie.

❄️ ‘As unforgettable as Hans Christian Andersen's 'The Snow Queen' . . . a whirlingly imaginative storyline full of wonder and hope as well as warning.’ – The Times ❄️

At the stroke of midnight on the dawn of December, five-year-old Finn Albedo is found frozen in the city park standing on a pedestal of ice. His heart is beating, he is smiling serenely, but no one can wake him.

Finn’s big sister, Bianca, suspects that the beautiful sparkling book Finn got from the library has something to do with it, but the book has vanished. Does the tall mysterious stranger who first discovered Finn know more than they will admit?

Each day, more children are found frozen and Bianca realizes she’s running out of time. Her quest to discover the truth and rescue her little brother hurls her into a fantastical winter wonderland, full of beauty and danger, where all is not as it seems.

Can Bianca save her brother and the other Ice Children before they are forever lost?
