Erin has always loved anything artsy...ever since she was young. She bounced around a lot during college trying to find that perfect career path...and then after a few bad eggs she made her way to the Art Institute and realized her dream of being an artist. So with a bachelor’s degree in graphic design in her back pocket she began playing with the idea of designing her own line of greeting cards, gift tags and custom invitations...which slowly evolved into graphic design work...and is coming back around to illustration again, this time in the form of children’s book illustrations!

In 2008 Erin was thrilled to have two of the children’s books that she illustrated get published www.thebadcats.com and www.businessblair.com and hopes that this will be just the tip of the iceburg. She describes her style as whimsical, colorful, and of course shabby-chic (whatever that means!!)

Erin and her husband (and high school sweetheart!) live in northern Illinois with their two (soon to be three) children and their crazy pup Bentley.
