Biography:

Simon Wild is an artist and illustrator from Suffolk. He likes to make
work that is colourful, decorative, and inspired by imaginary worlds,

interesting places, toys and unusual objects.

He is interested in capturing the fantastical through a combination of
observation and imagination. His ideas first take shape as written notes
and doodles in sketchbooks which he takes with him on his travels, before
merging unconnected ideas to form what becomes the concept for an image or
an illustration. He works with pen and ink, collage, screen print, and the
computer. His work has often been described as ‘psychedelic scribbles’
‘elaborate telephone doodles’ and ‘childlike expressions’. Simon likes to
think of each new illustration he creates as making a new friend for life.

His first illustrated book for children, Fantastical Flying Machines, was
published by Macmillan Children's Books in 2010.
