Dawn Machell loves to draw pictures and colour them in. She originally studied Fashion Design and worked in childrenswear before deciding to focus on surface pattern and illustration for babies and small children. She has been illustrating children’s books since 2014 and would love to write her own stories…one day…soon…when she gets a minute… She lives in the North of England with her other half, Neil, and their two (big) kids and one (little) dog…but dreams of having a house somewhere warm by the sea.
