Charlie Parsons - Childrens book illustration
Written by Natasha Benfell, illustrated by Maria Hermans.
"Charlie is a loveable Labrador who is getting old and losing his marbles. He gets in al kinds of sticky situations now that his mind doesnt realise, he cant do the things he used to. A reminder that pets get old too and just like people the mind wants to do what the body just can't."
Published in late 2021, Charlie Parsons is an ode to the delightful four legged companion of a dear friend of the author. Natasha approached me to do some accomapying illustrations for the book ,and after getting to know Charlie through the story, i couldnt possibly resist! I was able to complete the illustrations during NZs second lockdown, it was the perfect project to keep me pleasantly occupied, and giggling endlessly.
This has been my first foray into published illustraton, which has stoked the fire for more projects to come
Copies of Charlie Parsons are available for purchase from Lakes Performing Art Centre.
