Bhagya Madanasinghe is a Sri Lankan-born children's book illustrator who brings warmth, wonder, and storytelling to life through her art. Originally trained as an architect at the University of Moratuwa, she discovered her true passion in illustration and has been creating since 2016. Her work blends rich colors, expressive characters, and a touch of whimsy, making each piece feel cozy and full of heart.
Now based outside Toronto, Canada, Bhagya finds inspiration in everyday moments, new places, and the magic of childhood. As a mother to a lively two-year-old daughter, she embraces the joys of motherhood, which deeply influences her creative journey. She cherishes cozy living with her loving husband and daughter, filling their home with art, laughter, and warmth.
Recent clients include Two Lions Press, Harper Collins and Magination Press.
