Katie Shaw is a cartoonist who brings mythological creatures to life in her modern day all ages fantasy comic, "Dragon Child". Growing up loving animation, illustrated books by authors like Bill Peet, and fantasy novels, Katie wanted to tell her own fantastic stories. Discovering Jeff Smith's comic "Bone" opened the door to the possibility that presenting her stories in the form of comics might be the perfect fit. Katie created her own major for Sequential Art and studied under three Japanese manga artists in Tokyo, Japan while on an internship through St. Olaf College, teaching her many valuable techniques she uses to create comics today.
