I’m a follower now, too. I think there are tons of children’s books waiting for you to do the illustrations. Wonderful drawings, very funny and just so human (if that makes any sense, sorry, not a native English speaker).

I left a comment on the Mail story suggesting that someone publishes them all in a book. You totally deserve this accolade.

I never thought I would say this, but thanks DM! I love these. You remind me of a woman here in the US in the 70’s, Sandra Boynton (I think). You are on your way! Choose your agent carefully. Bon Voyage!

Angie, your illustrations are stunning. They capture family life so beautifully (and bizarrely your girls look like they could be my two, and if the youngest had been a boy, we had wanted to call him Gruff too! I am a South Walian in exile in brum!). I bemoan the lack of time in my life to do the creative things I love, but 20 minutes devotion every night is nothing to find in the grand scale of things. What a wonderful legacy, you are very talented and I wish you well.

I love these! Thank you for sharing them with the world….I have two girls and a boy aged 7, 5 and 2 respectively and your drawings really strike a chord with me. Raising them is so exhausting and lonely at times; seeing your work reminds me in a very personal way that so many others are going through these experiences along side me. Looking back on them really do bring on the joy and remind you after the fact how special those times are.

I just read the article from the link, saw your pic and now can relate a wee bit more to your sketches. it’s now more like sketches of a person I know rather than a family sitting a 1000 miles away, whom I have never met in person π
And hey, you don’t really do justice to yourself in all these sketches π
