The Penguin saga continues. Just wanted to share a few sneak peek shots of my most recent work. So very happy to be working with the great people at Usborne again! Hope your weekend is worth a 10 points!
Set of icons for an educational book for kids will go straight to my drawer, but my drawer is a very complex project on its own, so there will be some use for these babies I am sure! Is it lunchtime already?
New work! Icons set for kid's educational book!
New work!
New work! Each time I get so busy at work it becomes unbearable, I chose to do a personal piece instead. Not sure, if it was a good idea though, now I have to sketch new illustrations on a Sunday. Have a good weekend and eat your fruits!
Book Harvest in November!
I finally received the books I illustrated recently. I actually ordered them from an e-book store, because I could not wait any longer for my reference samples to arrive. All of these were published by Czech publisher Albatros recently. I am so proud of how they came out! Love to finally have the actual book home!

Princess Activity Book on the roll!
Last couple of days, I did my best to finish all the work there was to be done before the big event - the Frankfurt Book Fair. One of the lovely titles I was working on, is Princess Activity Book. I did this in coop with Illustopia Agency

ABC Activity Book for iSeek ready to rock in Frankfurt
This year, I have decided to skip the Frankfurt Book Fair. I did attend last year and it was a great experience to be there, but it also taught me I am not a good fit to the German publishing market and that it would probably be better to stick with the Bologna Children's Book Fair and Montreuil Salon instead :-) What I did though was complete a few titles that will fight for the publisher's and editor's attention. Besides the Christmas Around the World book I did a few Activity Books. One of them is ABC Activity Book that I did for iSeek in cooperation with Illustopia Agency.

Christmas Around the World Book
I can't remember being so impatient waiting for a book to get back from printers in a very long time. The Chrismas Around the World book which will be published in November this year by major Czech publishing house Albatros was sent to printers last week and I can't wait for it to be done! Meanwhile I decided to upload a few illustrations from the book.

There is more to be seen in the Work section of my website and also on my behance.
Christmas in Summer
Hello there! Long time no see! :-) I have been super busy with this beautiful illustrated project, can't wait to show you more, but I'm afraid it won't be for a while. It is a bit hard to relate to the Christmas themes at this time of a year (38C at the moment here in Bratislava). But it's fun!
Busy, busy, busy!
Long time no see! I know! Just when I thought it's going to be a slow summer (and I decided to sign up for an intensive French language course), I received so many project proposals I don't even know what my name is anymore. These illustrations come from come from very fun projects- two activity books for preschoolers. Thanks to my wonderful agent Ines Silva from illustopia, I have been able to work on several of these and hopefully there will be more in the future. Hope you like them!
New Book! Abecedario Maluco
Last week, I have received this colorful book in my mailbox - Abecedario Maluco, written by Luisa Ducla Soares, illustrated by me in cooperation with the wonderful Illustopia agency. I am really happy about it, took a few pictures with my phone this morning, hope you like them! The book was published by Porto Editora in Portugal this year.
The Meadow Board Book
For the past few weeks, I have been working on this extremely illustrated board book project - The Meadow. It's another great cooperation with the wonderful folks at B4U Publishing - check out their website here, they have so many fab projects!
Anyways, the book is full of bugs, bees, flowers and other plants, it's also very interactive - lots of peek-a-boo holes, flaps to flip through, look and finds etc. It's really fun!
Will definitely let you know when the book is available for purchasing! Happy Thursday!
