Illustration depicting an autumnal scene, showing a garden surrounded by other flats and houses. Growing in the middle of the garden is an apple tree which branches connect all neighbours who can be seen in all the little windows surrounding the tree. There is no fruit on the tree, only yellow leaves. Some of the characters that can be seen in the windows include a mum reading to her baby by a candle, a grandma and grandchild sharing a warm drink and a person calling their cat, which can be seen walking on the right wall of the garden. In the garden, a girl is carrying a giant orange pumpkin and an older woman on the left is passing some jam over to her neighbours above with the use of a basket and rope. A lively illustration showing the spirit of community and sharing.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! 🍁

I’m an illustrator and author currently looking for more picture books, board books and other novelty title opportunities.

Wow, LOVE the textures and colour palette! 🙌

Yay, sounds like my kind of adventure! 😄

So nice, Denis! I wonder where they’re off to? 🐭

Haha, thank you! 🎃

Such lovely textures, as always! 🙌✨

I love the shape of the water - it almost looks like claws dragging her underwater!
