Marko Rop is best known for his cute children's book illustrations and character design. He follows the industry trends closely and works mainly using digital media, but structures his works in a rather traditional way, inspired by rich heritage of Eastern-European illustration, which results in his unique modern-old school looking style. He was born in 1983 in Slovenia and later studied stage design and intermedia art in Vienna and Prague. Passion for illustration, curiosity and dedicated work opened up many doors that seemed locked 4 years ago, when he decided to become an illustrator. He has a long client list, stretching over 20 countries so far, from small local businesses to well known publishing houses like Oxford University Press.
