Aleksandra Szmidt is an award-winning children's book illustrator who grew up in southern Poland before traveling to the other side of the world to live in New Zealand. Excelling in digital and traditional techniques, Aleksandra works in her home studio to create one-of-a-kind artwork for clients around the world. Her love of painting children, animals and landscapes has brought her back to the funs and adventures of her own childhood. To that end, she likes to add a layer of magic and humor that is more imaginative than reality. Alexandra's work brought her great joy and a deep emotional connection to art.
