Introduction	Hello! I am an illustrator of bookjackets and children's books, and recently building up a new body of collage work based on bringing the emotions and fundamental themes of Greek Myth into my illustration, without approaching it too literally. I am based in Brighton at the moment and I spend a lot of my time in London, when I'm working or visiting friends. I love being asked to illustrate from a brief as it injects new approach and it's refreshing to collaborate. Please contact me if you have any questions about my work at all! www.florenceboyd.com
