Mette Engell is a Danish children’s illustrator with a master’s degree in biology and a lifelong love of storytelling. Inspired by the coastal landscapes around her, she creates painterly, narrative illustrations that focus on atmosphere, character, and quiet emotional moments.

Mette works digitally but often blends in traditional textures and hand-painted elements to bring warmth and depth to her artwork. Her clients include Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, and Bloomsbury, among others. She lives by the ocean in northern Zealand with her husband, their three kids, and three cats.

When she’s not drawing, you’ll usually find her running forest trails, mountain biking, or reading—usually Bukowski, Didion, or Steinbeck.
