SANCHI ARORA

Hello!

I’m Sanchi, a children’s illustrator and author based in England.

I graduated from Nottingham Trent University with an MA in Illustration. Since then, I’ve worked across a range of projects, including a collaboration with Settle Stories, the development of two humorous children’s books, and illustrative work for an adult self-help book. I’m also developing a silent picture book focused on children’s mental health.

Alongside my book projects, I work as a freelance illustrator. My work has been featured in respected publications such as The Indian Periodical, and I was honoured to win a NUH Art Competition.

I’m incredibly excited to keep exploring the world of illustration and always remain keen to collaborate on a wide variety of projects—from children’s books and editorial work to greeting cards, print design, and illustrated products. Whatever the project, my goal is always the same: to evoke genuine emotion and create work that allows the viewer to connect deeply. I believe art is an opportunity to connect with honesty and authenticity, and that’s exactly what I aim to bring to every project I take on.

Outside of illustration, I love reading, writing, and occasionally performing poetry. One of my short stories was selected for the winner’s anthology of the Red Postbox Creative Writing Competition, an experience that continues to shape the way I approach storytelling—both visually and in words.
