Illustrator
Marcin Piwowarski
Marcin Piwowarski was born in 1972 and pursued international and domestic careers in painting and children's illustration. He is self-taught in traditional as well as digital illustration and managed to make over one thousand books during his twenty-year artistic journey.
His artwork is mostly inspired by nature, daily life, and music. He likes to mix magical and mysterious ambience with down-to-earth elements of everyday reality, which results in thrilling but comprehensible pieces that are loved by children and adults equally.
As a single father of three kids, he understands what to include in his art for it to be adored and eye-catching. Despite all of that, the most important thing about his persona is, as he says, that he prefers tea over coffee.
