Hello there!
I am Lilla, a Budapest based illustrator, graduated from Children Book's Illustration MA at Cambridge School of Art in 2021.


I was born in 1990 in Hungary. After studying competitive Maths, obtaining an MSc in Architecture, running a small graphic studio with a friend, I  have finally realized that I  want to be an illustrator, which could have been an obvious career path given that I always had a passion for vivid colors, drawing and literature. 

Eight books with my drawings have been published since, four of them are authorial picturebooks.

I also work as an illustration tutor, and I’m part of a game developer team as well. 

In 2019 I received the award of " The Best Up and Coming Illustrator" (Budapest Illustration Festival), and 2020 I was selected for the “Illustrator of the Year Award ”(Hungary).
