Dotti Colvin Funny illustrator and cartoonist

Hi, I’m Dotti. I illustrate funny books for children and young adults, because

reading is too important to take seriously!

I love to fill my work with humour, warmth and lovable characters.

BOOKS

JUST RELEASED - Nate's Noisy Nose!

...and winner of three awards already...YEY!

One of my favourite reviews so far:

“Reading Nate’s Noisy Nose is like blowing into a whoopee cushion—it’s hilarious, surprising, and you’ll want to do it again and again! If you like books that make you laugh out loud, this one’s a total winner.”

Join Nate as he navigates the challenges of a nose that’s a bit too …er…noisy! With every tuneful toot, he finds himself in a new misadventure, but his loyal furry friend, Rascal, is by his side, ready to help him snuffle out solutions. Will Rascal’s devotion be the key to Nate’s noisy problem, or will a team of brilliant doctors and scientists come to the rescue?

This laugh-out-loud gem is perfect for families who love to giggle together. As Nate’s story unfolds, readers are reminded that even the quirkiest traits can lead to the most unexpected outcomes.

Available on Amazon.

WHAT OTHERS SAY...

"I’ve worked with lots of artists over the past 35 years. Dotti is exceptional! (Dotti is outrageously talented, customer focused, creative, communicative and a ton of fun. Her great sense of humor shows in her cartoons and interactions.) Dotti’s a keeper if you want concepts turned into masterpieces!"

Trish M.

“Suzanne Andrews’ witty, irrepressible verse, perfectly matched by Dotti Colvin’s zany illustrations, will make you giggle out loud …they might even inspire you to plan your own escape! Utterly original and absolutely irresistible!”

Sarah Brennan

"Selecting Dotti Colvin to illustrate my first book ( and second and third!) was undoubtedly one of the wisest decisions I have ever made. She is a gifted artist who cares. Her ability to interpret and execute my vision was remarkable. This takes a special sensitivity and awareness which exceeded my expectations."

“When we started I had no idea what any of the characters looked like and now they seem like real people! I know all about them and what they would do in a particular situation. Thanks for that!”
