The gradual demise of Phillipa Finch

After working in a Paddington bookshop for years Emma Magenta was beginning to feel her dream of being a discovered creative was not going to happen, ever...

She started doodling her work hours away on bits of paper at the cash register, on bits of sticky tape and put them up on the wall behind her. Customers started purchasing her doodles and then one customer offered her a book deal.

Sometimes it seems its important to just put yourself out there.

She went on to illustrate Toni Collete (of Murials wedding) childrens book and now they have produced this charming little series: The gradual demise of Phillipa Finch.

I will be posting more as she starts finding herself...
