Alongside his work in publishing, James has devised and performed in a hugely successful series of concerts for children, combining live classical music, storytelling and live art. He is also the creator of the much-loved Ella Bella Ballerina series, and many other titles.
Many more titles have followed, and the series sells in museums and galleries all over the world, from the Met in New York, to the Uffizi in Florence, the Louvre in Paris and beyond. It's been firmly in print ever since, recognised universally as the original and best introduction to art for children.
James grew up in Suffolk but now lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and small son. From Peter and the Wolf, to Scheherazade, James has worked internationally with many different orchestras and musicians, creating illustrations in time to music. James Mayhew studied at Maidstone College of Art and his first children's book, Katie's Picture Show was published in 1989.
