About Debra McFarlane.

Hi, I'm a freelance illustrator and artist based in South West London, specializing in fairy tales, fantasy, and classic children's and adult literature. I've illustrated 10 books for The Folio Society to date, including classic novels for children and adults, and a collection of short stories. The Radio Times magazine in the UK has also been a repeat client, and I've created many small illustrations and one cover for them. Since 1997 when I graduated from Kingston University with a BA in Illustration, I have worked with several clients, often using etching and aquatint, or alternatively watercolour. I enjoy drawing, painting and printing a wide variety of subjects, including mythical and magical creatures, fairies, angels, animals, and people in historical costumes. I'm enthusiastic about interpreting good stories in a visual and thoughtful way, and hope to give the viewer a glimpse into another world through my work. Thank you for looking!
