Zrinski

Galina Zinko graduated from the State Academy of Design and Fine Arts in Kharkov, Ukraine. She has received the Russian Book Illustration Award in 2014, 2018, and 2019. Zinko’s illustrations for children’s books evoke a desire to touch the drawings and dive into the enchanting world of fairy tales. While some readers describe her style as gothic for children, the artist prefers to call it fairy tale realism.

Galina has collaborated with the French beauty brand L’Occitane, the famous Metropol Hotel, the large corporation Post of Russia, several international magazines, and various publishing houses. She has illustrated works by renowned authors, including William Shakespeare, Hans Christian Andersen, Charles Perrault, and Lewis Carroll, with over 35 published books to her name.
