Publisher's Weekly Tiny Blessing's Book Review
Sarah Walsh is a maker of books & illustrated goods. Her passion is creating magical worlds with vivid color, thoughtful narratives, and endearing characters. Her drawings and hand lettering can be found on anything from a tote bag for Blue Q to a fully illustrated version of Roald Dahl’s classic book Matilda. Her influences are an eclectic mix of 80's pop culture, vintage children’s books, mid-century design, and folk art. Sarah has illustrated over 20 picture books with top publishers and partnered with celebrated brands all over the world. She also makes and sells illustrated goods with her partner Colin Walsh for their online shop Tigersheep Friends. Even though her clients and the shop keep her busy, Sarah maintains a consistent personal practice by doodling or painting in her sketchbooks. They’re a place for her to get lost, write, experiment and dream up future projects. She lives in Kansas City with her partner, son and dog.
Let’s make something together. :)
