EN: Alexandra Gregor is a freelance illustrator based in the Black Forest (Germany) and Bordeaux (France). She creates children’s book, learning-material and editorial illustration for organisations in health, wellbeing and social impact. Her work centres on people, their emotions and their relationships with each other and the world around them. She also designs illustrated collections of patterns, characters and motifs that can be licensed or adapted for products, packaging and spaces. I work with clients in German and English fluently.
DE: Ich bin freiberufliche Illustratorin im Schwarzwald und in Bordeaux. Ich illustriere Kinderbücher, Lernmaterialien und Editorials, vor allem für Organisationen aus Gesundheit, Wohlbefinden und sozialen Themen. Im Mittelpunkt meiner Arbeit stehen Menschen, ihre Gefühle und ihre Beziehungen zueinander und zu ihrer Umwelt. Außerdem entwickle ich illustrierte Kollektionen aus Mustern, Figuren und Motiven, die sich lizenzieren oder für Produkte, Verpackungen und Räume anpassen lassen. Ich arbeite mit Kund:innen sowohl auf Deutsch, als auch Englisch fließend.
Topics I work on
Education · mental and physical health · wellbeing · social justice · communication · life changes such as growing up, grief, shifting identities and the coping that comes with them.

Why illustration
A story can help a child understand a feeling they can’t name. A picture can make a difficult topic less frightening, a complex one easier to grasp, and help readers feel seen and less alone.

Who I draw for
I create illustrations that help people, feelings and complex subjects feel seen and understood: for children trying to understand their world, educators who want to make information accessible, and organisations telling stories that need to be told.
