Melinda Moolman

"Books by LAM" is the pen name of Melinda Moolman, a self-publishing and self-taught illustrator. Her journey into publishing originated from an obsession with drawing digital mandalas as a way to soothe a busy mind. She now publishes her own hand-drawn colouring books to share her passion with others. Though creating art isn't her full-time job, she's always had a deep creative streak and each book is a testament to her love for the craft, featuring vibrant illustrations suitable for all ages and skill levels. Originally from South Africa, she shares a full life with her wife and daughter in New Zealand.
