I am so excited to announce my first self published book!
I did a project on the struggles I faced when I injured my knee (I've torn my meniscus and require an operation). I have been on crutches since early September and during the running of this project I have struggled a lot giving up my independence and asking for help. Channelling my emotion into these drawings, which I don't usually do, has really helped and made me look at the positive of the situation.
So here is my book and a few of the illustrations please do go and have a look. This is also a huge thank you to everyone who has kept reading my blog and seeing what I am up to. I love signing in and seeing people have dropped by if I could offer you tea and cookies for visiting I would!
Hi, my name is Rachel Cook and I am an Illustrator based in Greater London. I work using paper cut out techniques but I have experimented with various materials throughout this blog. I love drawing and making things and I am easily inspired. My aim for this blog is to inspire others and spread positivity.

The journey of being on crutches.. sketchbook bits
I hurt my knee over the holidays and I have been on crutches for two months. The latest project at uni is "do something you've never done before" I played about with a few things but they were more interested in my journey and how I can illustrate the everyday irritants of being on crutches. So here are just a few doodles. watch this space for some finals. :)
