Laila Savolainen Illustrator

Laila Savolainen has never been a boy of ten, but she has had her fair share of experiences with Burples. Her days and dreams are filled with characters and creatures. Some come out in words, others in paintings, some even are made into sculptured figures or puppets. Before becoming a fulltime creator of books Laila's career kept her in the arts.
