Whilst studying architecture at university, Brendan Kearney realized he didnand#39;t like rulers. He then discovered that it wasnand#39;t essential to use a ruler when illustrating childrenand#39;s books, and so traded architecture for illustration as quickly as he could. Having now completed his degree, he specializes in childrenand#39;s books, bringing his own chaotic style and ideas to any project. If you canand#39;t find him drawing you are likely to find him with a guitar or banjo in hand. Brendan currently lives in the UK.
