Hello, my name is Daria!

I am an illustrator from Russia currently based in Leicester, UK. I graduated from Arts University Bournemouth in 2022 with First Degree in Illustration. Since then, I am a freelance illustrator with children’s books being my main focus.

My work is often inspired by personal experience will it be sailing, living in a snowy environment or growing up with younger brothers. I love folklore and stories from all over the world!
