Rob shares his belief that everyone is able to draw: some may just need a little help to get started on their drawing journey. Rob talks about his career as an author and illustrator and explains the role of an agent and why they are important to creatives. Rob discusses his book Draw with Rob: Fantastic Food, and why food is a talking point for all. And, most importantly, we find out why Rob always wears his peaked cap!

Rob Biddulph is a bestselling and multi award-winning children's author and illustrator. In March 2020 during the coronavirus pandemic, he started #DrawWithRob, which resulted in him breaking the Guiness World Record for the largest online art class! Rob has won many awards, including the recent Illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards (the Nibbies). He lives in London with his wife and three daughters, and Ringo the dog.
