Dostalova, Petronela: - "Petronela graduated from the Cambridge School of Art with a MA in Children's Book Illustration. Before the MA she was studying Fine Arts at the University of East Anglia. In 2015 her children's book project The Reds and Greens was highly commended for the Creative Conscience Award. The project was promoting equality. Petronela comes from a Czech-Slovak-Hungarian background but decided to nest into the heart of Suffolk where she currently lives and works with her partner and their dog Haribo. If you don't find her drawing at her desk, she will be out travelling or cycling somewhere. She likes to be near, in, on or under water at anytime of the day except when she is drawing - she is still working on a way to be able to do these things at the same time."
