EXODUS ILLUSTRATION

Illustrator, Storyteller, Adventure, Wonder

WELCOME! image
Hi, my name is Dale Vande Griend and I'm an illustrator and storyteller.
Several years ago, I wanted to find a way I could spark wonder and tell stories.

So, I started drawing.

With drawing, I'm able to create illustrations, graphic novels, picture books, and coloring books.

Drawing helps remind me of the wonder I see in this world everyday. I want to keep that wonder for this world, and I want to inspire others to do the same. My hope is that you enjoy some of my work and gain a little something from it.

  • Check out my 200 page graphic novel, DOLL. It's about a girl named Roopa, an Indian brothel, a doll, and it's a survival story. Read it HERE.

  • Interested in unique coloring books? Check all these hand-drawn coloring books HERE.


  • Think mushrooms are crazy yet beautiful? I hand-drew, inked, and watercolored a coffee table book filled with all sorts of crazy looking and amazingly named mushrooms. See it HERE.

Some of my clients include:
HOPE International
Tiny Hands International (now Love Justice International)

Dordt College
Resonate Global Mission

I'm always interesting in talking with anyone or any organization who is looking to add illustration to a project. I'm open for commissions, children's books, graphic novels, or whatever your creative ideas are. Please don't hesitate to send an email my way! I look forward to hearing from you.
