Georgie McAndrew
BA (Hons) Illustration
Georgie McAndrew is an emerging children’s book illustrator and storyteller based in Norwich, UK, under the pen-name of G. A. McAndrew.
While wrapping up her degree in BA (Hons) Illustration at Norwich University of the Arts, Georgie started to write and illustrate her debut picture-book ‘What the Forest Has in Store’. She is passionate about tackling tricky topics in her work such as self-expression and environmentalism by making them fun and approachable for young people.
It was towards the end of her time at NUA that Georgie was shortlisted for the Penguin Cover Design Award Children’s Category.
Outside of illustration, Georgie is looking to continue her career in education, and has recently procured a full-time role within the Inspiration Trust based in Norwich, Norfolk.
