Kear, Katie: - Katie Kear loves illustrating new worlds and characters and sharing her artwork with others. She is a graduate of the University of Gloucestershire, England, with a degree in illustration. Reading has always played an important part in Katie's life. Whether it was reading her first picture books with her mother and imagining new stories for the characters, or as an older child reading chapter books into the night, she remembers always having a love for books. That love is what made her choose a career in illustration. When she's not drawing, Katie enjoys adventures in nature, chocolate, stationery, the smell of cherries, and finding new artists to inspire her.
