Illustrated coloring book Fairytales

Lodkata.com, also known as The Boat, is a self-publishing house where imagination meets experimentation—creating books, posters, cards, notebooks, and other treasures with a deep care for people and nature.

For this project, my mission was to design a children’s sticker book for coloring, filled with beloved characters from classic fairytales. My client gave me complete creative freedom, which allowed me to dive into research, exploring countless children’s books and films. Inspired by the timeless magic of Grimms’ Fairy Tales and the playful worlds of Disney, I began sketching characters and objects by hand. Each drawing was then scanned, refined, and prepared for print.

The finished book contains over 70 original illustrated stickers, along with four double-page glossy backgrounds, where children can place the stickers and build their very own fairytales.

This project was more than an illustration—it was a journey back to my own childhood, when I dreamed of heroes and villains, magic forests, and happily-ever-afters. And now, through this book, I had the joy of passing that wonder on to the next generation.
