Annabel Tempest always knew she wanted to grow up to be an artist. Nothing makes her more excited than a pile of paper and a seriously sharp pencil. She has a passion for picture books, and loves creating characters.

Annabel’s tyle is bright, bold and full of colourful fun. She uses her experience as a surface pattern designer to bring lots of texture, layers and patterns into her work, and has illustrated everything from children’s books, including Rebel Wilson's Bella the Brave, and maps to greeting cards and packaging.

Annabel lives in the beautiful Somerset countryside with her husband and a house full of muddy boys and dogs.
