Natelle Quek
Natelle is a Malaysian-born illustrator who grew up in New Zealand, and now lives in leafy Southeast England with her husband and their rescue cat, Patch.
Natelle illustrates children’s books, with a particular focus on picture books. She loves to use bold colours and cinematic perspectives to draw readers into her worlds. She works digitally, and her illustrations often combine real life themes with fantastical adventures. Her influences range from popular culture, to her heritage and personal experiences, to the natural world.
Natelle is the official illustrator for the UK libraries/Reading Agency Summer Reading Challenge 2024.
In her free time Natelle loves to explore nature trails with her husband, track down delicious pastries from around the world, and tend to her house plants and garden.
