Amandine Thomas

Hello there,

I'm Amandine Thomas!

I am a French award-winning illustrator and art director based in Melbourne, Australia. At age four, I announced to a bewildered family that I would become a children’s book illustrator, and grew up writing short stories that I illustrated and compiled in crooked, clumsily stapled booklets.

Fast forward to present-day, and not much has changed: I now specialise in children's books, editorial, and commercial illustration, collaborating with people hailing from one side of the globe to the other.

Through my playful and lively illustrations, I explore the themes I am passionate about, such as our environment – and the many ways in which it can inspire and amaze us – or the many connections we foster with others, with ourselves and with the world around us.
