About Amy

Hi there! My name is Amy Knill, and I am a children’s illustrator born and raised in Vancouver, Canada. I graduated from Emily Carr University with a BFA in illustration in 2018, and have been working in my business ever since!

I have worked on a range of children’s projects, from editorial illustrations with Mighty Kind magazine and Spider Magazine, to various product illustrations with iGROWco, Positive Discipline UK, and Coco & Peluche. I have also worked on a multitude of picture and chapter books with local authors, and self-published two of my own picture books.

I love to illustrate calm and colourful images in traditional media; primarily watercolour, coloured pencil, and gouache. My passion is in creating children's books and illustrations that focus on the importance of a bright imagination, and understanding the nature that surrounds us.

Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in booking me for a project!
