Author and Illustrator Rhonda N.Garwward
Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Rhonda graduated from the National Art School before relocating to various regional areas across New South
Wales, where she taught Art at all levels. She and her husband now enjoy living by the coast in Gosford. Rhonda has studied drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, and papermaking. She has participated in both solo and group exhibitions, showcasing her work in painting and printmaking, and has received awards in drawing, painting, and contemporary art. Her work has been exhibited at the Guangzhou International Art Fair in China, and she was invited to exhibit at the Florence International Biennale. She illustrated the children’s natural history book Have You Seen My Egg? for the
National Library of Australia—a title later selected for Mandarin translation by the National Library of China. She also wrote and illustrated Tilly’s Reef
Adventure, a story about the Great Barrier Reef. Tilly’s New Adventure is the sequel, following the little green turtle on her life journey as she grows and finds her home territory. This new book provided the opportunity to include wonderful creatures that didn’t appear in the first, while reinforcing the message of our shared responsibility to care for the environment.
