Itβs official, my very first illustrated picture book is out! Mr Puddlebrush, by Jon Buxton, is a book about an elusive, almost magical but very simple and kind character who lives in the Lake District, England and spends his days brushing away the puddles after each rainfall - his workplace is the beautiful Cumbrian landscape and his companions are sturdy Herdwick sheep and gentle butterflies.
It took around five months to illustrate 15 double spreads from the first sketches to final art and I used tons of photo references of the typical landscape, dry stone walls & flora and fauna of Cumbria.
Mr Puddlebrush book is now available in selected shops around the Lake District and at Waterstones.com.
Yay! Looks wonderful! Canβt wait to get it! β€οΈ
