Jackie Morris is an internationally acclaimed British author and illustrator of more than seventy works whose richly detailed watercolors and lyrical storytelling have made her one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary illustrated books. Jackie lives on the Pembrokeshire Coast in Wales, where the wild landscapes and the flora and fauna that inspire her writing and illustration form the core of her artistic practice. Her art is celebrated for its atmospheric watercolors that bring the natural world and mythic and folkloric narratives to life for readers. Among the works for which she is best known, The Lost Words, with co-author Robert Mcfarlane, was selected by UK booksellers as the “Most Beautiful Book” at the Books Are My Bag Awards in 2016. Her titles The Lost Words and its companion The Lost Spells have been translated into multiple languages and inspired touring exhibitions and multimedia projects.
