T.S Spookytooth with red cardinal and unidentified flower in lapel. circa 2017.

T.S Spookytooth is an award-winning illustrator. He has been illustrating for three quarters of a score or 15 years if you prefer. He has worked across children’s picture books, editorial content and advertising campaigns, always with a smile on his face and a customary cup of char and a wad in hand, (tea and cake essentially). He is a thoroughly good egg and the consummate professional, working like a dream with clients. Beyond that he likes to keep himself to himself and he can often be found scribbling down ideas in the form of words and images in the many notebooks he squirrels away in his jacket. Below you’ll find some very nice things that past clients have said about him.

T.S Spookytooth is a pleasure to work with. He’s creative, flexible, and always willing to go the extra mile to make every illustration as good as it can be.
— Carol Hinz, Lerner Books
We really enjoyed working with Spookytooth for an illustration in one of our recurring humor columns. He was receptive to our feedback while also contributing his own ideas that took the illustration above and beyond our expectations. He sent us plenty of sketches and revisions throughout the process, and always before the deadline! I can’t recommend him enough — his style is truly unique and bound to catch your attention.
— Ryan Rich, Virginia Living Magazine
Mr Spookytooth has a distinctive style, a quirky imagination and the ability to convey emotion with the simplest of lines. He really brought our manuscript to life, with warmth, humour, and sensitivity to the peculiarities of our brief.
