Hello!

My name is Sirin (rhymes with cheerin’), and I am a Thai-American artist based in NYC. I currently focus on picture books, and most recently illustrated “The Purple One: A Story of Prince” by Matthew Burgess, published by Enchanted Lion.

Previously, I was the in-house illustrator for Catapult magazine, where for several years, I created numerous illustrations to accompany a variety of essays and short stories. My editorial work can also be found in The Washington Post, The Guardian, TIME magazine, and many other publications.

In addition to my illustration practice, I am a fine artist for the hospitality industry, and since 2016, I have been collaborating regularly with the fabulous team at Faulkner + Locke to create custom paintings and other mixed media artwork, for hotels, buildings, and offices, all over the country.

In my free time, you can find me birdwatching and hiking with my husband, Jason, and rescue pup, Indie. I also run a little online print shop, Sirina Ruby, inspired by our time outdoors.

Creating art that is mindful, vibrant, and engaging, is my passion. For book projects, please contact my agent, Stephanie Fretwell-Hill, at stephanie@redfoxliterary.com. All other art directors may reach me directly at sirin@sirinthada.com.
