Kristi Bartholomew

My Experience

I studied fine arts and Spanish in undergrad before moving to New York City to pursue fashion design. I worked as a dress designer for 15 years prior to my my journey into picture books. I'm a member of SCBWI, Storyteller Academy, and 12x12.

My Skillset

My Experience

I have a B.F.A in figurative art and an A.A.S. in fashion design. I sketch by hand and love watercolor and gouache. Most recently I've been honing my digital skills in Procreate. My years in the fashion industry provided strong Adobe CC skills and a respect for deadlines.

My Goals

I am focused on storytelling and illustration full-time. My goal is to connect with likeminded creatives who can help me bring my ideas to life and push my art to a level worthy of publication. I have several stories ready and more in the works! If interested, email: artbykmbart@gmail.com
