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.

Feathers

Feathers

Leaving a feather for Kay became the thing I would do to reassure her that she was on the right path. I don't have arms, so it's the closet thing I could do to hugging her.
A lot of people believe that finding a feather is a sign that your guardian angel is with you. Kay knew the feathers were from this world, from me, but it didn't make the significance any less magical. She's kept them all and remembers the moments and why she got each one.
