Rosie Butcher is an illustrator living in East Yorkshire, England and enjoys working with traditional materials like watercolors and pastels. Her illustrations and working habits are also influenced by history, historical figures and scientific phenomenon; particularly Astronomy. She also gets a great deal of inspiration from music, film and live performances. Rosie loves the way a children's book can influence a child (and more often than not, an adult). Rosie thinks it is important to try to think like a child would and derive inspiration from the adventures of these little beings, and the belief in magic.
