Moesha is a London-based illustrator with a love of the great outdoors. She can often be found tote bag in hand with her sketchbook and a handful of drawing tools rattling around inside and possibly a pencil in her hair. Drawing inspiration from her childhood in Somerset, her love of nature, people watching and exploring the outdoors, many of her illustrations contain a playful use of shapes, colours and characters, with humour often in the details. Slug Life was her first book.
