Hello! Thanks for all the love on my birbfest illustrations! If you’re enjoying them, please head over to IG & follow me on there too 🤞 (as I keep forgetting this place exists & I’ve been trying to get past 2000 followers there for about a decade 😂) instagram.com/bryonycrane #illustration #kidlitart

Some more #birbfest2026 characters! Here we have a Northern Emerald Toucanet, a Dalmatian Pelican, a Common Redpoll, & the New Holland Honeyeater🪶. Who’s your favourite? #kidlitart #illustrator #childrensillustration #birdillustration #birds (are we supposed to hashtag on BlueSky? No idea 👵)

Drawing some of the #birbfest2026 prompts again this year - really fun! 🐦🎨 (And yes, the duck’s eye is supposed to be that far up, and his forehead that big!) #illustration #kidlitart

I’ve done a long-overdue portfolio update and I think it’s looking pretty good 🎨🎉 - please go and have a little peek! bryonycrane.com #kidlitart #childrensillustration #illustrator

A middle-grade / chapter book sample I made for my portfolio. Really love the textures and characters in this one, and working in only 2 colours was challenging but really fun! 🦭 #kidlitart #childrensillustration

Couldn’t resist the day 3 title for the Imagined Book Cover challenge today - ‘A House In The Peppertree’ 🌳. Trying to be a bit more loose with my peppers and foliage 👀🌶️ #kidlitart #kidlituk #illustration

My agency is not yet on Bluesky, but I figured it’d be nice to put together a starter pack of the authors and/or illustrators of BookEnds Literary who’ve already made it here. Say hi to my agency siblings! #starterpack #booksky #kidlit go.bsky.app/Uw5hJaE

My map of children's independent bookshops is updated regularly. Most provide an online service and they're all run by people who can make well-informed book recommendations. Make sure you support your local one if you want to keep it. Any missing, please let me know. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...
