About

Hi, I’m Helena Juhasz, a cartoonist and illustrator based in North Vancouver, BC. I specialize in illustration for marketing campaigns and packaging design, with a focus on engaging, kid-friendly visuals for juvenile publishing. I’m represented by The Literary Longs of Tugeau 2 Art & Literary Agency (for Juvenile Publishing).

Beyond client work, I co-own North Shore Bike Shop and wear multiple hats—from marketing director and designer to social media content creator. I also teach an annual comics arts program at local schools and libraries in North Vancouver, and I self-publish Halloween mini comics (2012–present).
