Events
As a children’s book illustrator, I thoroughly enjoy visiting local primary schools around Merseyside, joining university talks, and taking part in on-stage events for kids. My sessions are full of creativity, colour, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into my world of books and illustration.
My calendar can get quite busy, but I’m always excited to hear from new schools and organisers. Feel free to get in touch to check my availability. I’m also happy to join virtual classroom visits and run online workshops via Zoom, which can be perfect for schools further away!
Client Testimonials

“We were thrilled to welcome Rachael Dean to Our Lady’s, where she truly inspired our children with her incredible talent and passion for illustration. Through her engaging workshops, she encouraged our students to explore their creativity, think outside the box, and believe in their artistic potential. Rachael’s warmth and enthusiasm ignited a love for drawing in every child, showing them that with dedication and imagination, they can achieve great things. Her visit left a lasting impression, and we are so grateful for the inspiration she shared!”

I began my illustration journey on Instagram and still love sharing my process, behind-the-scenes peeks, and connecting with fellow art lovers.
