Layn Marlow - Illustrator

Layn Marlow grew up in semi-rural Essex. After studying History of Art at Reading University, Layn began her career working for the library service. She lived in Belgium for a few years but it was on her return to the UK that she enrolled as a mature student at Southampton University and received a first class degree in illustration. Layn has numerous picture books published with Oxford University Press. She has two grown-up children and now lives with her husband in Berkshire, where they enjoy country walks with Rufus, their border terrier.

Layn has numerous picture books published with Oxford University Press.  For relaxation she loves listening to Radio 4, knitting and karate!
