Illustrated postcards sent straight from my drawing board. I write as candidly as I can about my life as a childrenโs book illustrator/author and share the drawings I make, all with the intention of lifting your spirits and making you smile.
Iโm Claire Powell, a NY Times best-selling childrenโs book illustrator and author, living in the rolling hills of Derbyshire. I draw mostly from my imagination and write mostly about my life, humorously, so Iโm told.
My weekly post - Receipt from the Bookshop - is written in real time from my award-winning independent bookshop in St. Annes-on-Sea, UK. Paid subscribers also get an additional weekly essay/book review and access to my book club.
Playful drawing sessions for everyone. ๐ป Weekly art prompts, tips, and illustration techniques from a kind, creative community.
