ABOUT

A young child with curly hair and green eyes, smiling slightly, wearing a green corderoy jacket.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I am an artist and illustrator of both French and Egyptian origins, based in Somerset in the United Kingdom. My work focuses on expressive characters, emotions, and storytelling moments, often using white space instead of detailed backgrounds.

I have illustrated several picture books and chapter books to date, working with independent authors, small and medium publishers, and other clients.

When I’m not illustrating, you’ll likely find me spending time with my son, reading a good book with a nice cup of tea, or walking my dog.

If you’d like to say hello, ask a question, or discuss a project that might suit my art, I’d love to hear from you. You can email me at leila(at)leilanabih(dot)com or send a message using the form below.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Get in touch !
