Hey, you! So nice of you to click to learn more about me, Kristina Henson.
I live in Upstate New York with my daughter, a Golden Retriever, and two cats. Before writing and illustrating my two books, One Hundred Birds Telling One Hundred Little Stories and Letters to Lily, I maintained a blog and regularly published personal essays while working in the graphic design industry by day and devoting the majority of the rest of my time doing what I love the most — writing and creating books. I love everything about books. With all that’s inside of them—the things I can learn, the places I can travel to, the characters I can fall in love with—what isn’t there to love?
I can define myself by being so many things: a mother, a daughter, a sister, an artist, an author, a designer. But most importantly—and what I remind myself of often—is that I am a woman who needs to create. 
I hope you enjoy a peek into my studio and life. 
Kristina 

Differences

Differences

kristina henson

What are our differences? Well, there's the obvious, I am a bird. She is human. The other big one is our temperaments. I go from zero to hot-headed anger in two seconds and she seems to have born with more patience than Mother Teresa. I like meat. She prefers vegetables. She loves the morning. I love the night. I tried to kill the neighbors' poodle. She makes him homemade peanut butter dog treats. How is it, in spite of all of our differences we have remained devoted to each other for all these years? I don't know. It's one of the greatest mysteries of my life. We just have.
