Overview
Tatjana Mai-Wyss specializes in children's illustration. She has always loved reading and drawing, and illustration seems like the perfect combination of the two. People have said her pictures make them happy, and to her that is the best feeling. She tries to to share her love of stories and give readers a peek at the world from her perspective.
She loves the challenge of working on unique projects with a variety of clients, and her illustrations have been published in books, magazines and cards in the US and abroad.
Originally from Switzerland, Tatjana loves to travel and has lived in quite a few places- luckily there are still many more parts of the world for her to explore! She is happy to be fluent in a few languages and can work on projects in French and German as well as English.
