Samantha Dixonis an illustrator who loves to create work that sparks curiosity in others. She continuously pursues learning about science and the natural world, which finds its way into her art. Inspired by happy memories of visiting art galleries with her grandparents, she has wanted to be an artist since she was little, so getting to draw for a living feels both right and surreal. She earned a bachelor's degree in illustration from Sheridan College, and the first book she illustrated, Running Wild: Awesome Animals in Motionby Galadriel Watson, won a 2020 Eureka! Honor Award by the California Reading Association. She is also a full-time Illustrator for a natural health company.
