Mackinzie is an illustrator living in Iowa City, Iowa with her husband, three rambunctious kiddos and an old doggo.

She’s a self-proclaimed picture book addict and will never have enough bookshelf space. She specializes in digital art and most often uses the 6B pencil brush and dry ink brushes. She adores styling her characters with quirky accents and is known for her use of texture and well-intentioned color palettes. She aspires to make picture books that children see themselves in and that inspire a sense of wonder. When she’s not illustrating, Mackinzie can be found reading, traveling, or reading about traveling.
