Ada Bednarz
Hi, my name is Ada and I am a Polish illustrator currently living in London.
As a child, I grew up with a natural passion for drawing, but it was only a few years ago that I decided to fulfill my dream to become a picturebook maker. Studying the Children’s Book Illustration MA at Cambridge School of Art was a great time of fostering my creativity among wonderful artists and friends.
I enjoy creating playful characters, combining different techniques such as gouache, printmaking, ink, colour pencils and pastels. My inspirations come mainly from my childhood memories and observing my daily surroundings.
Living abroad for some time now, I speak fluently English and French.

the walk
The Walk is a humorous story about two dogs going on a walk in the park, that turns out not to be a very calm one. It is never a boring walk, when your sibling is around, right?
sChool calendar
‘Today teacher made me write 100 times Manners maketh man. That was not funny.’ wrote 8 years old John in his diary in 1924. This, and many other adventures of students from the previous century can be discovered as notes and illustrations in this unordinary school calendar.
