Mette Engell


Mette is a self-taught children’s illustrator and surface designer.

She grew up in northern Zealand, the largest island in Denmark. She studied biology at the university of Copenhagen, where she earned her master’s in marine biology. She has always loved coming up with stories and characters, so after her first child was born, she picked up her pencil and hasn’t put it down since. Today she lives by the ocean with her husband and their three kids, two cats, and a lionhead bunny in a blue house filled with art supplies, picture books, and Legos.
