Divi & Frey

Hey there! I’m Tony Flowers—a globe-trotting illustrator, author, and educator who’s been making wild things come to life on the page for over two decades. Whether it’s a cheeky ninja in Samurai vs Ninja or a 3D illusion hidden in my graphic novel, Divi & Frey, I believe stories should leap off the page and tickle your brain.
By day, I teach design and creative thinking at the University of Tasmania (yes, that island with the dramatic skies and wallabies), and by night I dream up new adventures with my characters Divi and Frey, inspired by my wanderings through cities, cultures, and cafés around the world.

My work’s taken me from Australian schoolrooms to international adventures, sketching, storytelling, and sharing the magic of illustration with anyone who’ll listen. I believe creativity should be messy, joyful, and just a little bit rebellious.
If you’re curious about the latest scribbles, travel inspirations, or how I turn jetlag into storylines, you’ve come to the right place.
Pull up a virtual beanbag, explore the blog, and let’s get lost in the pages together.
