Sharon Davey is a children’s author illustrator with a lively style and enthusiastic spirit. She worked as a set and costume designer for 15 years before moving on to illustration. Sharon has enjoyed working for a variety of illustration clients including David Fickling Books, New Frontier Publishing, Oxford University Press, Bloomsbury, Farshore, Egmont, Hachette, Puffin and Ladybird and next year Penguin Workshop US.
In recent years Sharon has been lucky enough to live draw at events and venues including The Royal Opera House and the National Maritime Museum. She offers a range of workshops to libraries, schools and bookshops on the subjects of stories, character, drawing and book making. Get in touch if there's an event you would consider livening up with a creative mind in the room.
Sharon loves collecting plastic dinosaurs and naming them after historical figures - and if she's not at her desk working you can find her dancing in her kitchen with her rainbow family.
