Sakshi Mangal – Designer

Children's book illustrator with 10+ years of experience, creating whimsical, colorful stories that spark imagination and wonder.

Overview

I am naturally drawn to the enchanting world of children's book illustration, where bold colors and whimsical, scribbly lines bring stories to life. Inspired by my own childhood, I find endless joy in imagining the world through a child’s eyes.

Since earning my MA in Children’s Book Illustration from the Cambridge School of Art in 2016, I have been living in Vancouver, Canada, with my husband, Avi, and our daughter, Soraya, working from my studio as a children’s book illustrator. When I’m not immersed in picture books, I love spending time with my family, cooking, hiking, and exploring new corners of the world.
