Hi art directors and agents! I’m Erin, an illustrator from Bangor, Northern Ireland. Currently looking for work and representation in children’s publishing and illustration. More of my work at erinmcclean.com 💕 #kidlitartpostcard

Dummy book all ready for Bologna! ‘Fairies Don’t Live in Cities’ tells the story of Meri, whose dreams of catching a fairy are squashed when her family move to the big city. But Meri soon discovers that the city is full of surprises. Sometimes you have to look a little closer 🔎

Midnight feast! Adding some more middle grade to my portfolio before Bologna

Hello 👋

A close up of these little guys from my Halloween illustration

Happy Halloween! 🎃

A quick one from my sketchbook for Peachtober today

Little footsteps in the grass, I wonder who they belong to 🧐

Please tell me if this is better with the moon and stars or without? I’ve stared at it too long and I can’t tell anymore

Some recent cuties from my sketchbook ✏️ honestly my favourite part of the process is the development and thumbnailing where these little characters feel so much more alive

Party for two ✨
