Amanda Morrow is a freelance illustrator based in Southern California. She uses digital media but strives to give her artwork a traditional look inspired by her favorite materials like gouache, pencils, and oil pastels. She loves any opportunity to showcase cute kids, stylized animals, and big emotion through picture books and commercial fiction. Amanda brings heart and imagination to story-driven illustrations and thrives when she can play with color and texture in her work. In her free time, you can find her enjoying sunny California, whether that be on the beach or sitting in the park with a good book.
