About Us

About Us

Multi-award-winning illustration team Chantelle and Burgen Thorne are eclectic bookworms who delight in the magic of stories… and sometimes, write a story or two themselves. As career illustrators, they’ve learned to draw really fast and are deft wielders of the digital brush. They’re happiest drawing kids' stories with a dollop of humor and a ton of animals. When not at their desks, they can be found being towed around the countryside by their three vintage German Shedder dogs.

Represented internationally by the incredibly fabulous
Paul Moreton of Bell Lomax Moreton London.
