Hi there! My name is Hayley, and I'm an illustrator based in St. Paul, Minnesota. Growing up, I was enchanted by the art I saw in books and movies, which sparked my passion for storytelling. My home boasts a unique blend of cultures, nature, and people that inspire me, and I often find myself drawing from history and fantasy in my illustrations. Crafting moments that are packed with emotion and convey authentic connections between characters is at the very heart of my work, and I love to combine my drawings in pencil with digital media to achieve this. With my degree in Illustration and Animation from the University of Kansas, I have gained experience in publishing, products and animation. In my free time, I enjoy running obscenely long distances and perusing local bookstores.…Hi there! My name is Hayley, and I'm an illustrator based in St. Paul, Minnesota.
