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.

A Tired Mom

I’ll bet a lot of Moms do that. You know, scream at you to apologize to your siblings knowing that there is no way the apology is heartfelt. It must come from a place of exhaustion and a loss of how to address shitty behavior. Eventually my Mom got tired of yelling at me and did the same thing to me. She put her feet against my back, gave me a good shove and sent me flying out of the nest.

Tricks

Sorry
