Hello and thank you for visiting!
My name is Emila Yusof and I am an author, illustrator, and fine artist with over two decades of professional experience in visual storytelling and children’s literature.
My career spans both the publishing world and the fine arts. As an author and illustrator, I have over 100 published titles, with some of my works translated into multiple languages. Notable accolades include being a nominee for the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award in Sweden, the White Ravens 2025 selection for Pohon Kenangan, and winning the Italian Excellence: Pinocchio’s New Clothes international competition in 2026. My books have also been featured in the Frankfurt Book Fair’s Best 50 Titles for International Rights by the National Book Council of Malaysia (MBKM).
On the fine art part, I like to explore themes of landscape and figurative works, often featuring the symbiotic relationship between human and nature. My artworks has been exhibited internationally in galleries and art fairs.
Based in Ampang, Selangor/KL.
