Hi! My name is Alina and I am a children's book illustrator.

I went to the University of Hartford Art School and graduated in 2016 for illustration and art history.

Belonging to the adoptee community has shaped my perspective as an illustrator.

I think my cute style plays a role in being a fun and relatable visual language to aid in delving into big emotions and feelings. I hope to create books that children of all backgrounds can connect with, especially to those who carry a unique story themselves. 

I have worked with a few self-published authors on their picture books and take pride in producing high quality, digital illustrations meeting tight deadlines, and bringing a client's vision to life.
I am currently available for commission. Head over to my contact page, I look forward to hearing from you.
