Hi there! I'm Abby Zechman, an award-winning artist who specializes in ink pieces. I work across traditional and digital media, and I love telling stories through bold line work and textured surfaces. I draw inspiration from ancient art, comics, and animation, and I enjoy collaborating with authors and fellow creatives to bring imaginative ideas to life. I grew up in Flower Mound, Texas, and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Drawing and Painting with a minor in Art History from the University of North Texas. When I’m not creating, I’m teaching, learning new techniques, and sharing friendly art tips with others.
