Hello,

I'm Leah Boudreau! I’m a self-taught illustrator from the East Coast of Canada.

My vibrant and whimsical illustrations are inspired by my childhood on Cape Breton Island, where nature, culture, and local stories often find their way into my work.

Even as a wee little kid art has always been a passion of mine, and after years of practice and growth, I’m incredibly grateful to now be able to pursue it professionally.

While I primarily work with traditional mediums, I’m constantly evolving and experimenting with new techniques.

When I'm not illustrating, you’ll likely find me walking my dogs Maple and Spruce, baking, reading, or relaxing with a cozy cup of tea.

β€œYou see I had learned the first, last, and middle lesson—’never give up!'”
