Claire TownsendClaire Townsend is a costume designer and illustrator turned author/ illustrator. She has been interested in the healing power of stories since she was a young child reading Grimm and Hans Christian Anderson fairytales. This love of stories led her ito the theatre, but as theatres across the world closed in the pandemic she concentrated on new ways to use her illustration skills. In her free time, you can find her at the beach picking up trash, stand up paddleboarding and scuba diving, her ultimate meditation. More of her illustration work can be seen at www.thingsIneversaidtoyou.com. She lives in Brooklyn with her two cats Thierry and Priscilla, who have been known to add a paw print or two.
