Hello! My name is Kayla James and I am a recent graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology SUNY. I have been studying Illustration, Art History, and writing since high school, and have graduated college with the former as my degree and the latter as double minors. I love stories: whether in the form of books, movies, tv shows, theater, or even casual everyday conversations. I have always loved to read, which eventually grew into a love to write, and my goal in my illustration work is to give hope, representation, joy, inspiration, and excitement to readers (especially those that look to books for an escape). I am interested in all genres of book illustration from YA books, to graphic novels, to children's books. Overall, my hope is for my work resonate and emotionally stick with people.
