I’m Tali, a children’s illustrator from Melbourne, working across kids products, games and publishing.
I’m all about creating work that connects with kids.

Always great to get your dose of vitamin sea!

I went to a few beaches - St.Ives, Mousehole, Penzance and Port Isaac. The weather was sunny with a few cloudy spots and it was great having a change of scenery and being to just chill!

Whale inspired by my trip.
