* Signed copy of Keith Among the Pigeons released October 2019! *
I created the story for 'Keith Among the Pigeons' whilst studying for an MA in children's book illustration at Cambridge School of Art. The story grew out of an encounter with a cat called Keith that I used to pass on my way to work. An unusual name for a cat, I started to wonder what his day was like and if it was perhaps a bit unusual too. I then developed the story and character of Keith while studying on an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. The process of making the artwork was inspired by traditional screen printing that I had access to at Cambridge School of Art.
This is a custom-made item and cannot be returned unless faulty.

Full description
Keith is a cat, but he'd rather be a pigeon. He loves to watch them and learn their ways, but they won't let him get too close. Will Keith ever make friends with the pigeons and learn how it feels to be one? Will he ever find out who he really is and feel comfortable just being Keith? A warm and funny story about identity and accepting yourself for who you are.
Keith is a bit of an outsider, he explores his feelings in writing with his ‘hi-coos’ and likes to nap in trees, wash himself in bird baths and dreams of being part of the pigeon’s world as he doesn’t feel comfortable in the cat’s world. This story is for anyone who feels that the way they are expected to be doesn’t reflect who they truly are.
