Serena Scully

Address: Stockholm

Hej, is misé Serena Scully, an Irish illustrator, designer, and educator living in Stockholm. In 2023, I worked with the team at LeabhairComhar and illustrated my first children’s book, 'An Snag Breac Ildaite', an Irish language picture book about embracing your true self. My illustrations for 'An Snag Breac Ildaite' were selected by a panel of Irish and International publishers to be one of ten featured illustrators in the ‘New Voices’ category at the annual International Children’s Books Ireland Conference. Ruth Ennis of Children's Books Ireland wrote a very kind review of my illustrations in 'An Snag Breac Ildailte' calling them "some of [her] favourite picture book illustrations of the year to be seen". I was later interviewed by Books Ireland for their 'Under the Covers' feature where I spoke about staying curious, keeping my eyes open, and taking inspiration from the natural world around me. I specialise in illustrating narratives that celebrate the beauty of nature and promote themes of sustainability and diversity. From vibrant ecosystems to heartwarming stories of inclusivity, I strive to create visuals that evoke emotion, spark curiosity, and inspire positive change. My style is highly adaptable and versatile, allowing me to tailor my illustrations to suit a wide range of projects and preferences. Serena is sister to children's author, Sinéad Ní Scolaí.

About Us

Irish Interest in based on one very simple idea: to bring the contents of any Irish bookshop to people everywhere, especially those outside Ireland who do not have the possibility of keeping abreast of new books published in Ireland. The Irish Interest web platform is purely a provider of information about new publications. The aim of the site is to have every publishing house in Ireland adding their latest titles as they become available. Hyperlinks to each title bring users of the site directly to the publisher's web area or to a sales site where books can be purchased.
