Dominika Lipniewska [lee-pniev-ska] is a creative type person born in Poland to a creative type persons family. Due to the fact that she was born before the internet was even invented, Dominika made do with drawing, writing, reading books and inventing weird characters and imaginary friends.
As her curiosity about the world grew, Dominika started traveling and finally settled in London. Here she quickly discovered that being creative is the only way to stay happy and decided to study at Central Saint Martins and Cambridge School of Art.
Dominika has been working independently since 2013. She has published numerous children’s books, worked with commercial and editorial clients, exhibited her work and encouraged others to play and create through workshops, classes and art events. Her distinctive style of bold shapes and lines has landed her commissions and collaborations with clients such as Tate, Financial Times and a book project with Munch Museum.
She currently works from her home in north London and is on the lookout for new projects, residencies and collaborations.
