Overview

Children's Book Illustrator—this is my specialization! Hi, my name is Anastasiya, and I am 34 years old. I live and work in Poland in the beautiful city of Wroclaw. I am a fan of my business; I have a great love for what I do and am ready to draw illustrations for picture books for whole days. But this is not always possible, since I am still a mother and a loving wife :) I devote all my free time to my favorite work.


I will give you 7 arguments why you need to choose me:

1️⃣ 50+ successfully completed projects

2️⃣ experience working with individuals and publishers around the world

3️⃣ 2555+ working days dedicated to illustration

4️⃣ 100% of clients are satisfied with my work

5️⃣ I am a professional and I am constantly improving my skills (webinars, courses, conferences)

6️⃣ creativity and unique style: bright, deep, dynamic, unusual, detailed and lively illustrations, lots of light and sun, emotional characters

7️⃣ ❗️ ❗️ I love my job very much, infinitely, incredibly, mind-bogglingly ❗️ ❗️


Although I am a Children's Book Illustrator, I am also a businesswoman. Here are my principles of successful cooperation:

✔️ strict compliance with the terms of reference

✔️ quick communication with the client

✔️ quick adjustment of the project

✔️ compliance with project implementation deadlines

✔️ individual approach to each project

✔️ I always listen carefully to the wishes of authors and publishers, and strive to accurately convey their intent in illustrations

✔️ always in touch.


Tools and programs I work with:

🛠 Adobe Photoshop,

⚒ Adobe InDesign,

🔧 Adobe illustrator,

⚙️ Procreate.


Finally, I want to mention a few details:

👌 where necessary, I suggest curating the project,

📗 I receive the text from you and give you ready-to-print layout of the book with the cover,

🧙‍♀️ through vivid images, detail, dynamics and light, my illustrations create an emotional connection with young readers. They awaken the imagination of children and help to develop their creative thinking. My work brings characters and environments to life, creating worlds that you want to immerse yourself in.

Anastasiya was a joy to work with. She and I worked very closely to bring this story to life. Anastasiya is an incredibly talented illustrator. The illustrations are beautiful. She learned my style and eye with time and I am thrilled with the outcome of my children's book. She is hard working, responsive, professional and I would absolutely work with her again on my next book!

Anastasiya wasn’t my first choice but at the end of the day she was the best choice! Before she began her work I wrote down what I was looking for when it came to illustrations. I didn’t provide this to Anastasiya because I wanted to see if sh...
