Live stream tomorrow - let's draw a picture book! Last week I designed a cute little hedgehog named Alastair Higglespike. His job is to sneak into kitchens and audit the pantry. Tidy them up, sort the vegetables, that sort of thing. He is an extremely respectable business hedgehog. In this live stream I'm going to draw up some picture book pages for him!
