Kelly Breemer is an illustrator from the lovely green city Arnhem, in the Netherlands. She loves the freelance illustrator life because her work days are diverse, creative, energetic, and positive-and that fits her very well! After graduating from art school in 2012, Kelly started working in many different creative fields: children’s books, animation, typography and lettering, infographics, character design, and painting murals. Eventually Kelly found out that books were her favorite. Then she started working for Astound as an illustrator-and she feels like the projects are just as diverse, even more fun, and she's excited to start drawing again every new work day!
