While studying Architecture, Brendan Kearney realized he didn’t like rulers. He also discovered that drawing pictures for a living was a legitimate and fun career option, so he traded architecture for illustration as quickly as he could. Brendan now creates children’s book, bringing his own chaotic style and ideas to his projects. If you can’t find him drawing you’re likely to find him with a guitar or banjo in hand.
