Krina Patel-Sage

Krina Patel-Sage is an illustrator, author and designer. Beginning her design career at a London based children’s publisher in 2012, her passion for creating innovative illustrated non-fiction grew. She went freelance in 2015 after her son was born, working for a variety of children’s publishers, slowly moving from design to illustration. In 2018 she was shortlisted for Penguin’s WriteNow illustration prize. After a brief stint in the design department at Pan Macmillan, just before the birth of her second son in 2019, she began to exclusively write and illustrate. Her first author/illustrator title is due for publication with Lantana in 2021. She is represented by Clare Wallace at The Darley Anderson Children’s Book Agency
