NOOR

Five years illustrating children’s books, and more besides: cartoons, packaging, stickers and puzzles. Covers make up a larger share of her portfolio than anyone else’s on the team, alongside animal characters and storyboards. She settles the colour palette early and revises against the story rather than the style.
