Laivi Põder Illustrator & Author

Hi, my name is Laivi Põder, I'm an illustrator from Estonia but currently living in London. I work digitally, using Procreate. I love creating peaceful and dreamy atmospheres. I use a lot of stamp brushes in my work, all of which are created from hand drawn images. Nature is my biggest source of inspiration and I try to go and explore woodlands, lakes, botanical gardens, parks and pretty much any natural places far and nearby as possible. I grew up in a very green little town, so I love the calm feeling that being in nature gives and I hope it reflects from my work, too.
