K.M.Brown
Graduating with High Honors and as Valedictorian of her high school class, Katie (K. M. Brown) wasted no time in getting herself out into the art world and establishing herself as an artist with a passion. Within the year, she was illustrating children’s books for local authors and eventually found her way to Oghma Creative Media, where she illustrated her first book for them – Rey and the Magic Amulet. Often spending her free time writing and reading poetry, Katie’s lifelong ambition is to become an established writer herself, standing in as both the author and illustrator of the many stories she has to tell. In the meantime, when she’s not busying away at her workbench, she manages her online art business – Sunny’s Castle – and hosts many long sessions of D&D with her friends.

Jain Coble
Ever since she could remember, Jain Coble has been captivated by cartoons and illustrations. As a child, she spends hours on end drawing characters from Disney animations, virtual pet sites, and anime in the teen years. Throughout high school and college, she eagerly signed up for every course she could, but took a little detour and graduated from Millersville University with a Bachelors in International Studies. Jain was born in a small ex-Soviet country called Moldova and moved to the USA at the age of ten. Growing up as an immigrant, she often felt that she could express herself through art when words weren’t enough. At a young age, she developed a strong appreciation for different cultures and diversity, which led her to study abroad and travel to over a dozen different countries (so far!). She feels most accomplished when her art sparks inspiration or a connection with the viewer and encourages you to reach out! Jain can be found on Instagram, Twitter, and Etsy all under the same affirmation she claims proudly: JainMakesArt(.com)
