Illustrator. Dreamer. Visual storyteller.

Born in the lush landscapes of Kerala, India, and now creating in the vibrant city of Toronto, Nesba Yusuf brings a colorful cultural blend to every page she illustrates. Her art is infused with the joy of childhood, the wonder of nature, and the beauty of animals—elements that reflect both her roots and her boundless imagination.

Her second picture book, Oh No, Mika the Monster!, bursts with character and creativity, capturing young readers with playful surprises and meaningful messages. With her fourth book already in the works, Nesba continues to grow her artistic voice—one radiant story at a time.

Her illustrations are more than images—they are joyful journeys that spark wonder and warmth.
