picture book in the works
I’m delighted to share some exciting project news–I’ll be working with Dana Chidiac and her team at Dial BFYR on my first picture book, Nana, Nenek, and Nina!
👵 🌳 🤸♀️ 🌴 👵
Thanks, ta, and terimah kasih to my agent, Kurestin Armada at Root Literary, for finding Nina a great home!
From Publishers Weekly:
“Dana Chidiac at Dial has acquired world rights to Nana, Nenek, and Nina, written and illustrated by debut author Liza Ferneyhough. Nina is off to visit her grandmothers, who live in Malaysia and England respectively; while their food, clothes, and neighborhoods look quite different, they both love her exactly the same. Publication is slated for spring 2022; Kurestin Armada at Root Literary represented the author-illustrator.”

ayam brand tote
A tote bag illustration for Ayam Brand sardines in Malaysia. My family used to buy these when I was little, so an especially fun project for me! They’ll be doing some in-store promotions with the totes.
Here’s the full tote bag illustration: Ayam Brand sardines on nostalgic dishware from my childhood in Malaysia. Sedap! 😉
Scrambly sketch page.

hotel utah open mic
Dispatches from various Monday nights on the balcony at the Hotel Utah Open Mic. This very slow sketchbooker appreciates how still musicians tend to stand during their 6 minute poses–errrr, sets.
