Mandy Sinclair
My illustrations have been published in many books by, among others, Luath, Hodder, The National Trust for Scotland's Wee Guide series for children, GM Publishing, United Press, and Culture and Sport Glasgow.
I am passionate about inspiring creativity in children and young people. I have presented workshops and programmes for many authorities over Scotland and at such events as, The Big Draw and Aye Write!
Fun-packed sessions with lots of positive feedback, including, 'one million out of ten' from pupils at David Livingstone primary school! One project I was invited to was Project Z (Ferguslie Library young people's group), where they acted in Dawn of the Fegs - a community produced movie. I helped the young people create the accompanying graphic novel - Terror at the Tanny. The project won the Community Arts Award 2012.
At present I am working with Create Scotland - another graphic novel for the Young People and Mental Health Festival, Open Mind, and have two picture books out later this year. It's not a bad job indeed, this illustration lark!
