Kathy O’Malley knew she wanted to be an artist from the age of six. Kathy graduated from Chicago’s Columbia College, and has illustrated more than 40 children’s books. Her work can also be found on greeting cards, gift bags, limited-edition collectibles, and decorative home products. She works from her home studio in Glenview, Illinois overlooking her perennial gardens, watched by her two loyal art critics, her spoiled standard poodles.
