Paula Heaphy

Paula Heaphy is a print and pattern designer in the fashion industry.

She’s an explorer of all artistic mediums from glassblowing to shoemaking, but her biggest love is drawing. She jumped at the chance to illustrate her friend Erin’s story,having been bullied herself as a child. As the character of Luisa came to life on paper, Paula felt her path in life suddenly shift into focus.

She lives in Brooklyn, New York, where she hopes to use her creativity to light up the hearts of children for years to come.
