Anita is best known as an illustrator and author of children’s books, particularly the modern classic ‘Guess How Much I Love You’, written by Sam McBratney.
Constantly drawing, Anita’s artwork extends beyond purely illustration. With a gift to capture character and emotion with a simple pen mark or a sparingly placed brush stroke, she creates images full of empathy for her subjects. Anita’s constant inspiration is the natural world and particularly the menagerie of animals that share her family’s life.
