I'm Dominika - a London-based visual artist and educator whose practice spans illustration, painting, design and public art. Working with bold shapes, vibrant colour and playful characters, I create everything from children's books and editorial work to large-scale murals and sculptural play objects.
I graduated from Central Saint Martins (BA Graphic Design) and Cambridge School of Art (MA Children's Book Illustration) and my work has been featured in collaborations with Tate Publishing, Financial Times, Wallpaper Magazine, Munch Museum in Oslo and Uniqlo. I've published books in multiple languages and run creative workshops across the UK, Europe, India and Sri Lanka. I also currently teach short courses at University of The Arts London.
In 2025 I was awarded a DYCP grant from Arts Council England to focus on book research, writing and illustration - an exciting new chapter in my practice.
