I’m Jago and I have been illustrating children’s books since graduating from Falmouth in 2003 . I work from my home in North Cornwall with my lovely family. I have produced illustrations for over 60 children’s books and a few magazines, as well as a TV show or two, some logos and album covers. Recently I have also participated in a series of exhibitions and signed prints of my work are now available in galleries around the UK. My wife and I are constantly working hard to expand the range of illustrated products in our online shop. Most of my children’s book work has been for publishers in the US as my agent (Ronnie Herman) is based in New York. I’m probably best known for my work with New York Times Bestselling author Sally Lloyd-Jones. Our books have sold more than 3.6 million copies and won a tidy stack of awards. I work entirely digitally using an Apple Pencil with Procreate on an iPad Pro.
