My name is Helena Rakic, and I’m a textile designer and illustrator based in Montreal, Canada. I completed a BFA from Laval University and an MFA from Concordia University. I take any opportunity I can to draw. When I’m not drawing, I’m sewing, go out for a run or am dancing somewhere.

Favourite Things:

Lavender colours, glass objects, natural fabrics, almond butter on toast.

Things that are less appreciated:

Ill fitting shoes, crumbs on the table, oil stains on your favourite shirt. 

My favourite hobby:

My cat’s name:

Suri, or more commonly, Beba. 

Next dream destination:
