Audrey Suau

Audrey Suau – Designer

I'm a Children's books Illustrator. My illustrations are whimsical, colorful and full of life. Board books, PB, chapter books, book covers..

Overview

My name is Audrey and I’m an illustrator.

I have illustrated several Children’s books, Picture books and children’s magazines for prominent publishers and self-published authors.

My experiences make me able to know what is appealing for kids of various ages. I love to work with authors or/and editors and translating their ideas into pictures.

My illustrations are whimsical, colorful and full of life. I love drawing people, animals and nature. I like to focus on their emotions.

Most recent works:

- I worked with Choose Your Own Adventure Publishing - Dragonlark, illustrating a Children's book ("4th Bestselling Children's Book Series of all Time"- The New Yorker). This Book is called Big Bigfoot's secret vacations and is available for preorder on Barnes and Nobles.

- I worked with Little Hippo Books Publishing, illustrating a Picture Book.

- I am currently working with lovely self published authors on middle grade and Picture books.

COMMUNICATION is very important for me and I always respect the DEADLINES.

I have experience in producing PDF for KDP Amazon and IngramSpark.

Prizes:

I was one of the finalist of the PB Party illustration showcase 2022, and won an Honorable mention in 2024. I also won the May banner of the Kidlit411 Illustration Contest 2022.
