About the Illustrators

Alexandra Paquin is a fine artist with an affinity for depicting the human figure. She studied at Spring Arbor University where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with concentrations in both drawing and painting. Her undergraduate studies explored a wide variety of media, though oils have remained her primary focus. This project provided the opportunity to create illustrations that offered both the human figure as a subject and a chance to further explore ink and watercolor, and was a thrilling and challenging venture.

She blends her interest in art with a desire to improve the quality of life for those facing medical challenges. Bethany describes her contribution to the illustrations within this book as an honor.
