Hi, I am Alina.I’m what people usually call an illustrator. And a designer. And now, an author.When I was little, I was lucky. I grew up in a time that felt adventurous, offline and a little wild.Thanks to voices like Attenborough and Cousteau, we sat glued to our television screens — not because they were loud, but because they showed us wonder. For the first time, we could see the miracles of nature up close. And it was mind-blowing.Now I have a child of my own. And the world has changed. Nature is available on demand. Childhood feels faster, fuller, louder. Through my books, I try to pass on something of the world I once experienced — stories that leave space for curiosity, for quiet moments, and for discovering the world not as something to consume, but as something to experience and protect.

Nature plays a central role in her work, rooted in the belief that closeness to the world is a prerequisite for understanding — and for protection later on.
