Sally Tinker and co view Dexter Maelstrom’s private collections. From the work in progress, Chickensaurus - our later this year. . . . . . @fremantlepress #STinkerInc #chickensaurus #brobot #dungzilla #gastronauts #kidlit #kidlitart #childrensbook #childrensillustrator #childrensillustration #book #books #kidsbook #bookworm #booklove #booklover #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #comicbook #comic #comics #graphicnovel #teacherlibrarian #schoollibrary #librariesofinstagram #teachersofinstagram #childrensliterature #illustration #illustrator #draw

To quote Po from Kung Fu Panda: “Ah, my old enemy - stairs.” They’re not the easiest thing to draw; they have to be evenly spaced, they have to rise in a steady incline and they have to fit with the scale of your characters. Luckily I’m just drawing them as a cross section here - drawing them in perspective adds an extra layer of difficulty! This is a work in progress from S.Tinker Inc book 4: Chickensaurus, out later this year. . . . . . @fremantlepress #STinkerInc #chickensaurus #brobot #dungzilla #gastronauts #kidlit #kidlitart #childrensbook #childrensillustrator #childrensillustration #book #books #kidsbook #bookworm #booklove #booklover #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #comicbook #comic #comics #graphicnovel #teacherlibrarian #schoollibrary #librariesofinstagram #teachersofinstagram #childrensliterature #illustration #illustrator

S.Tinker Inc book 4: Chickensaurus. It’s been through a lot of written drafts, but I finished my first fully illustrated draft today! It’s 199 pages long, which is 50 pages longer than the two previous books. It will take a while to draw the finals, but for now - champagne 🍾 . . . . . @fremantlepress #STinkerInc #brobot #dungzilla #gastronauts #kidlit #childrensbook #book #books #kidsbook #bookworm #booklove #booklover #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #comicbook #comic #comics #graphicnovel #teacherlibrarian #schoollibrary #librariesofinstagram #teachersofinstagram #childrensliterature

Had the great pleasure of presenting a session for North Beach Primary’s bushfire fundraiser the other week. Kids brought in a gold coin for my talk and all proceeds went to the appeal. The three inspiring kids who organised the day - Paige, Hayes and Amish - also got a secondhand book sale happening, and the principal bought some illustrations I donated on the day. Shout out to @paperbird_books , @scribblersfest and @ajbettswrites who also donated time, books and money. All up the kids and the school raised over $1000 for the bushfire appeals! 🥳👏🤜🤛👏🥳

Gonna start a side hustle being an Andy Griffiths impersonator

Perth people, tomorrow is the annual Backyard Book Fair! 10:30-12:30 at the State Library of WA. It’s an awesome family event with 11 kids’ book creators presenting.
