I’m Chantal Horeis — an illustrator and muralist based near Stockholm, Sweden. I’m happiest when I’m drawing and painting scenes filled with nature, flowers, people, and quiet bits of everyday magic.

My work has found its way into books, video games, and advertising projects, but at its heart, it’s always about warmth and connection. I love the feeling of home, or the hush of a forest at dusk. Through my art, I hope to share a sense of calm wonder and remind people of the beauty in small things.

previous clients include: Simon & Schuster, Penguin Random House, Adobe, Procreate, Candlewick Press

I needed some time with my sketchbook today, so I spent the entire morning not doing that at all. Luckily, the afternoon was a bigger success.
