‘I thought about stories shared in my childhood and what that meant to me. I could escape into a world of creatures that talked and strange things can happen. In our first house when I was a child, we had an overgrown garden and my grandmother told me I used to take books into the garden and make up stories. In a way I fell like that is where my imagination began, and where I still love to return.’
