Hi, I’m a children’s book illustrator based in New Zealand, originally from southern Poland. Since 2016, I’ve illustrated over 40 titles, including books, games, and licensed products. My work blends poetic charm with a playful edge, often inspired by nature, gentle emotion, and a quiet sense of humor.

I love combining traditional materials—gouache, watercolor, and mixed media—with digital finishing touches to bring warmth, texture, and character to every piece.

Over the years, my illustration style has naturally evolved into an expressive, painterly approach—well-suited for tender, emotional stories as well as character-driven, humorous ones. I love how it allows me to explore a range of tones and storytelling voices..

My seaside studio is scattered with pencils, cold cups of tea, and the creative chaos I’ve come to love. Though I live by the beach, I’m definitely an autumn person—drawn to the cozy colors and quiet moods of fall.

I’m always open to meaningful collaborations—especially stories with heart, imagination, and something just a little unexpected.
