Hi, I’m Madalina, a Romanian self-taught illustrator. I live in a big city with my husband, our kids, and our cat… though in my heart, I’m somewhere in a small mountain cottage.

I draw my inspiration from nature, books, and films. When I’m not creating, you’ll probably find me wandering through the mountains, listening to the sea, curled up with a good book, or watching a fantasy movie. I love cute, whimsical things - talking mice and sassy geese - as much as I love dragons, forest creatures, and strong women who shape their own stories.
