well hey there!

Kris Easler (she/her) is a freelance illustrator, art director, and chronic overthinker with a pencil. She lives in Minneapolis with her husband and doesn’t feel at home without at least one pet and a respectable collection of tea. She loves stories that allow her to explore light and darkness, both literal and metaphorical, and believes that even through laugh-out-loud humor a good story should have an empathetic heart.

Kris is represented by Jen Rofe of Andrea Brown Literary Agency! For inquiries concerning any book publishing work, please contact Jen Rofé at Andrea Brown Literary Agency jennifer(at)andreabrownlit(dot)com.
