  • 5 stars across 4 books
Poonam Mistry is a freelance illustrator living in
the UK. She graduated in 2010 with a degree in
Graphic Design and Illustration from the University
of Hertfordshire. Her style incorporates her love
of nature and her Indian roots and explores the
relationships between pattern, shapes and colour.
Poonam's upbringing and childhood have heavily
influenced her work, in particular being surrounded
by Indian fabrics, Kalamkari textiles, Madhubani
paintings and hand painted ornaments. These
patterns and intricate details are featured heavily
in her style of work. She loves folklore tales and
stories of Hindu Gods and Goddesses and these
have been a rich source of inspiration in a number
of her illustrations. Poonam's work is drawn by
hand with black ink before she uses computer
software to add colour and adjust the composition
of her illustrations.
