BIOGRAPHY

Original picture book artwork by Nick Sharratt is available for purchase from Images of Delight together with a series of limited edition prints.

Nick trained at St Martin's School of Art in the early 1980s and has been illustrating ever since. In the early days of his career he did also did editorial work ''Cosmopolitan's favourite cartoonist'' and packaging illustration, and was once commissioned to design a range of lollipops. But he's happiest in the world of children's books, and has illustrated close to two hundred titles now, covering books for all age ranges from babies through to teenagers and working with authors including Jacqueline Wilson, Michael Rosen, Julia Donaldson and Jeremy Strong, as well as producing his own books. He likes bright colour and bold line and humour is a key element in his work.

He's worked in a variety of media: wax crayon, charcoal, acrylic inks and collage, and at present is enjoying producing illustrations digitally, although he always creates his line drawings manually, adding colour with the computer. He's won many awards for his work, including the Children's Book Award, the Nestlé Children's Book Award, The Right Start Award (book category), the Under Fives non-fiction She/ WHSmith Award and the Educational Writers Award.

Nick lives in Brighton. Further information on his website www.nicksharratt.com
