Katherine Battersby is a CRANKOSAURUS 🐔📚さんのイラストまとめ

@HeyJasonJune Her name is Giggle and she loves her Bun-Bun (she’s clearly inspired by my little girl) 💜🐙

Please join me on Oct 2nd to help launch #PerfectPigeons in a special LIVE online event! It will be super interactive, with book giveaways, a reading, live drawings + a Q&A. Perfect for kids, families, teachers, librarians & all lovers of kid’s books.

Whenever I’m on deadline, a shiny new idea always comes along to try to tempt me away. Meet Giggle. She loves Bun-Bun & naps & tea parties & I hope to spend more time getting to know her soon 🐙 (If you’re my editor / art director, don’t worry - I’m back to drawing chickens now!)

Another furry cone! There’s little in life that brings me more joy than my puppy and ice cream, so surely combining them would lead to double happiness. And look who was curled in my lap as I drew this ❤️

Anyone for a kitty cone? I’ve been super busy with deadlines, books & babies lately, so I’ve made a goal to do at least 2 doodles a week that are just for fun. And what could be more fun than combining my 2 fav things - food & furry critters. Here’s to more fun! #FurFood #KatBat

This is the point in a book deadline where illustrator me asks writer me: why did you have to write so many pigeons into this book?? There are NINE on every spread. That’s over 140 in the book. That’s a whole lotta bird...🐦

Stained glass pigeons! Well, not really. This is how they look when I’m working away in photoshop, before I add their white backgrounds. No wonder I often end my illustration days a little cross-eyed...

This is what they will eventually look like:

Don’t get in cranky chicken’s way...
