Time to Snuggle Up with Kristyna Litten (Animation/Motion Graphics, Arena Illustration, illustrator)
The latest DFS TV ad features some wonderful new character designs by Kristyna Litten, the ninth advert in the Aardman-designed campaign for the sofa manufacturer. Time to Snuggle Up welcomes in “the Cosy Season” with DFS’s Autumn & Winter collection starring Pumpkin, the little cat and connoisseur of comfort. As burnt orange leaves fall and swirl about her, she peeks through the windows of a terraced street watching people curl up with their family on DFS sofas. This spurs her on to get out of the cold and back into her home to curl up on her very own comfy spot on the sofa.

Kristyna created nine new characters for Time to Snuggle Up but there were many more variations created before the final line-up was decided upon.

The Dinosaur That Pooped A Princess by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter is the fifth title to be published this year featuring Garry Parsons' wonderful illustrations.

Garry has been particularly busy over the last few months; he's enjoyed creating artworks that have featured dragons, princesses, dinosaurs, fairies and out of this world adventures to name just a few! Never one to rest on his laurels, Garry has also enjoyed becoming a regular guest author on the much loved Picture Book Den.

We spoke to Garry about some of the titles he has worked on this year and why each book, although very different, means so much to him.
