Lucy Engelman is an illustrator raised in the Midwest currently living in Pittsburgh, PA. Her work has appeared in magazines and books and often beyond the printed page through collaborations with chefs and farmers, apparel, home goods and filling rooms with custom wallpapers. 

She has had the opportunity to speak at several universities in the US as well as at Creative Mornings Grand Rapids, Michigan.

She regularly illustrates the Wine Editor’s Pick and Letter from the Editor for Food & Wine.

She started a professional illustration group called The Illustration League with illustrator/designer Michael Nykamp in 2014.

She has lent her illustration skills to over twenty books and hopes to author and illustrate her own titles.

Lucy illustrates surrounded by her wiggly giggly daughter, a wise often napping shepherd mix, and a growing collection of house plants. She is easily tempted by the world outside her studio and can be regularly found in the fresh air.
