Available to hire
Hi, I’m Dorota Lagida-Ostling, a multidisciplinary artist and illustrator based in Tempe, Arizona. I hold a Master of Fine Arts from the National Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, with a focus on product design and ceramics, and I explore painting, illustration, and teaching across international projects.
I’ve taught after-school enrichment and led illustration workshops in Australia and the United States, and I’ve created murals for Artslink. I’m passionate about storytelling, children’s literature, and helping people unlock their creativity through visual art and design.
