My name is Zeineb,
I am a bit of a late bloomer. After working for advertising agencies for more than 10 years, I discovered my passion for drawing. Being a mother of two, I particularly enjoy working on children’s illustrations.
I am also cofounder of the illustration studio, Glibett. You can take a look here
If you want to work with me or just say hoi, I’ll be happy to read your email : hoi@zeineb.ch
