I finally received the Usborne Little Chrildren's Activity book for Christmas! It looks so lovely! It was a great honor for me to cooperate on this book last winter and it is such a nice thing to get the actual book in mailbox. Almost hugged the mail woman yesterday, hah! If you'd like to get the books it is now available on Amazon. Have a lovely Holiday season!
Jungle Book in progress!
This was fun! I just finished a really exciting project today and that is the Jungle Book - lots of colors, lots of animals, one boy! I will try to post more when I can.
Histoires en pyjama pour les tout-petits is out!
So happy to announce another book with my illustrations is out! HIstoires en pyjama pour les tout-petits was created under the wings of the fab Editions Lito and I had a blast working on this title. Will try to post some images form the book soon!
Hello everybody! I will be celebrating the fact that I don't have to go to school anymore tomorrow when a new book with my illustrations comes out here in Slovakia. This one is full of beautiful poems by Tomas Janovic and I don't think I have had such a wonderful piece of literature on my desk in a while. Keep your eyes open when entering bookstores or pre-order via the publisher's online store https://www.buvik.sk/zazmur-ocka
Zažmúr očká book out in Slovakia tomorrow!

Hello everyone! I am so happy! A book calledPouic fait ses provisions will be published in France in only 7 days! So excited! Thank you Editions Auzou for this lovely opportunity! The book includes 5 sets of puzzles (9 puzzle pieces each) and a lovely story about little squirrel getting ready for winter. I really hope kids have fun with this! You can buy the book easily on amazon:
Guess what!
Here comes another one from the classic tales! And Little red riding hood is probably the most classic of all the classics, isn't it? I've had so much fun with these! Will be doing some minor amends but sooner or later I will have to move on to farm animals and princess stickers, haha! Which will also be fun, I suppose! I'll keep you posted.
Classic tales project will soon be off to the printers. I think I need to get myself some wine and cheese or maybe ice cream or both. I will post more illustrations soon!
Classic Tales
Few more from the poetry book!
Little by little I am closing up this poetry book project. The poems are just heavenly, I basically just put my legs on the table and the work does itself. Hopefully both the kids and the book buyers will like it :-)
Working on a book full of poetry for kids, how awesome is that!
I have been busy with a new book for preschoolers - I actually illustrated poetry this time! How cool is that! Can't wait to see it published, although it might take a while. Until then - will try to keep you posted with some sneak peeks and cute characters from the book.
Bedtime Stories WIP
Finishing up a book full of bedtime stories for the little ones. I am actually having a blast creating all of these little animal characters (again!). I hate it when a project like this is done, usually takes a dessert or two to get over it and move on to another job (and I cannot recommend enough all of the sweets that come from the Nebo pieklo bakery haha!
The Penguin Saga
The Penguin saga continues. Just wanted to share a few sneak peek shots of my most recent work. So very happy to be working with the great people at Usborne again! Hope your weekend is worth a 10 points!
Set of icons for an educational book for kids will go straight to my drawer, but my drawer is a very complex project on its own, so there will be some use for these babies I am sure! Is it lunchtime already?
New work! Icons set for kid's educational book!
New work!
New work! Each time I get so busy at work it becomes unbearable, I chose to do a personal piece instead. Not sure, if it was a good idea though, now I have to sketch new illustrations on a Sunday. Have a good weekend and eat your fruits!
Book Harvest in November!
I finally received the books I illustrated recently. I actually ordered them from an e-book store, because I could not wait any longer for my reference samples to arrive. All of these were published by Czech publisher Albatros recently. I am so proud of how they came out! Love to finally have the actual book home!

Princess Activity Book on the roll!
Last couple of days, I did my best to finish all the work there was to be done before the big event - the Frankfurt Book Fair. One of the lovely titles I was working on, is Princess Activity Book. I did this in coop with Illustopia Agency

ABC Activity Book for iSeek ready to rock in Frankfurt
This year, I have decided to skip the Frankfurt Book Fair. I did attend last year and it was a great experience to be there, but it also taught me I am not a good fit to the German publishing market and that it would probably be better to stick with the Bologna Children's Book Fair and Montreuil Salon instead :-) What I did though was complete a few titles that will fight for the publisher's and editor's attention. Besides the Christmas Around the World book I did a few Activity Books. One of them is ABC Activity Book that I did for iSeek in cooperation with Illustopia Agency.

Christmas Around the World Book
I can't remember being so impatient waiting for a book to get back from printers in a very long time. The Chrismas Around the World book which will be published in November this year by major Czech publishing house Albatros was sent to printers last week and I can't wait for it to be done! Meanwhile I decided to upload a few illustrations from the book.

Christmas in Summer
Hello there! Long time no see! :-) I have been super busy with this beautiful illustrated project, can't wait to show you more, but I'm afraid it won't be for a while. It is a bit hard to relate to the Christmas themes at this time of a year (38C at the moment here in Bratislava). But it's fun!
Busy, busy, busy!
Long time no see! I know! Just when I thought it's going to be a slow summer (and I decided to sign up for an intensive French language course), I received so many project proposals I don't even know what my name is anymore. These illustrations come from come from very fun projects- two activity books for preschoolers. Thanks to my wonderful agent Ines Silva from illustopia, I have been able to work on several of these and hopefully there will be more in the future. Hope you like them!
New Book! Abecedario Maluco
Last week, I have received this colorful book in my mailbox - Abecedario Maluco, written by Luisa Ducla Soares, illustrated by me in cooperation with the wonderful Illustopia agency. I am really happy about it, took a few pictures with my phone this morning, hope you like them! The book was published by Porto Editora in Portugal this year.
