about kassy

Picture
​I am an Illustrator, teacher, and artist on the Oregon Coast.

My mother ran a craft business, when I was small, and built my first studio when I was eight. I was always encouraged at a young age to produce art.

​I have worked hard to increase my knowledge of illustration by traveling each summer for the last several years to Hollins University and studying under some of the best children's book illustrators working today. I have received a Master's Certification in Children's Book Illustration and am in the thesis process of my Masters in Children's Book Writing as well. 
If you have any questions about classes, commissions, Dragon Art, donating materials, or anything else, please send me an email!
