About Me

Vanja Kragulj is a Canadian illustrator, surface designer, and art educator, who's known for her colourful and whimsical style. Her portfolio includes everything from children's books and toys to public art and commercial illustration.

She's worked with many wonderful clients including: Hallmark UK, UK Greetings, Weldon Owen, Workman Publishing, Galison Mudpuppy, Scholastic, Quarto Publishing, AUZOU, Fleurus Éditions, IMAGE Group Holland, Bravery Magazine, Highlights For Children and OWL Kids.

When she's not illustrating, Vanja teaches illustration workshops to children and adults at her studio. Her workshops are often inspired by children's books, illustration, and graphic design.

She lives with her son Jun, husband Kenji and their miniature husky, Hero in Calgary, Canada. If she’s not at her studio or working on an illustration project, you will likely find her at a local bookstore or library browsing the children’s book section.

She is always open to new projects and/or collaborations. If you are interested to work together please get in touch with her here.
