Overview
I am an award-winning children's book illustrator who specialises in the enchanting world of watercolour and mixed media. In the past 12 years, I have collaborated with over 15 traditional publishing houses in Greece and over 50 self-published authors worldwide.
I have also designed card and board games, and my illustrations are set to appear in an educational mobile and tablet app for children aged 3-6, which will launch in 2026 (can't say much yet! 🤫 )
Other clients include the EWC (European Writers Council), the American Coalition Against Childhood Cancer, Huffington Post Greece, and the National Book Centre of Greece.

TESTIMONIALS:
★★★★★
"Christina did an awesome job bringing my story to life! Her talent as a visual artist is second to none. Not only is she a great illustrator, but she also shines as a collaborator. She really is attentive, brilliant, and provides the best solution that will take your book to another level. I highly recommend working with her."
-- Germie B. Lazo, Author of "Dada-hood: Beautiful Chaos"
★★★★★
"I loved working with Christina! It is my first time writing a children's book and hiring an illustrator, and she couldn’t have been more helpful throughout the entire process. She was very thoughtful about all of her illustrations, the colors she used, and how it all worked together in the end. She had great suggestions when she thought another vision may work, but always ensured I was happy before moving on. I would work with her again in a heartbeat! Highly, highly recommend."
-- Brittney Spencer, author of "How Lucky am I?"
★★★★★
"If you are searching through reviews to find the perfect illustrator search no more, Christina is beyond exceptional. Not only is she highly talented and professional, she is personable. Christina created a safe space where we could share our thoughts and feedback freely. I greatly appreciate her wisdom on various topics far beyond illustration and look forward to working with her again in the future."
-- Books That Heal, publishers of "The Adventures of Kaitlyn & AJ", in collaboration with the Coalition Against Childhood Cancer and the Children's Brain Tumour Project
