Once upon a time Leah was born in Belgium where she was nurtured and fed beer, chocolate and chips by some small squirrels. This energising diet gave her the will to discover lands far away such as Cornwall where she studiously drew pictures for small people. She then moved to Bristol into Jamaica Street Studios were she found like-minded people. She sits there for many hours nicely asking the mice not to nibble the corners of her work and trying to think of stories to illustrate and ways to keep warm in the winter days.
