Author Information
Kylie currently lives in Colorado with her husband and three children. She enjoys drawing, crocheting, learning to sew, photography, reading, and listening to music. Kylie is autistic, and believes that helps her see the world in a unique, and creative way that feeds her art. Kylie doodled and scribbled growing up like most children did. When she was 13, she saw X-Men #22 in line at a grocery store. Her mother bought it for her, and Kylie fell in love with the industry. She started out learning to draw by redrawing every panel of X-Men #22 and Uncanny X-Men #302. Her mother back ordered hundreds of comics for her, feeding her imagination and curiosity. Kylie xeroxed dozens and dozens of pages, wallpapering her room in sequential pages to study. Artists that really caught her eye and influenced her direction were Alan Davis, Andy Kubert, Gary Frank, and Adam Hughes. She also adores pinup up girls, and her drawing of full figured women and natural curves helped build a clientele that is very diverse. At age 15, a year and a half after finding her first comic book, Kylie was published by AC Comics in Femforce Pin-up Portfolio 5. Rebekah Black, the wife of AC Comics owner, Bill Black, wrote Kylie's local comic book store expressing surprise that Kylie was so young and requested to see more of her work. Several publications followed, as well as newsletter features, comic book preview magazines, and the Who's Who In American High School Students. Kylie won Best of Show in the 1996 Columbus Welcomes the World art show for the Olympics in Georgia. Most of her recent work includes personal commissions, sketch card sets, book illustrations, t-shirt designs, art trades, and other freelance work. She has previously illustrated two other children's books. Some of Kylie's favorite things include Alice In Wonderland, Marilyn Monroe, antique books, and the color pink. Her favorite TV Shows are Supernatural, Smallville, Psych, and A Little Bit of Fry and Laurie to name a few. She loves anything involving Monty Python or Doctor Who. A few of her favorite authors are Diana Gabaldon, Piers Anthony, JK Rowling, and Robin Hobb.
