Hello there! I’m Sophia, an illustrator based in Mississauga, Canada. I hold a Master’s degree in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design. My work blends cozy, whimsical storytelling with playful characters, all inspired by gentle, peaceful moments (and sometimes a little silliness too). I specialize in book cover design and illustration, but I also have experience in animation backgrounds and pattern design. If you’re looking for imaginative artwork that brings stories to life, I’d love to collaborate!
