Hey folks! My name is Katie Shanahan and I'm a cartoonist, animator and storyboard artist from Toronto, Canada. In my free time, I love to make comics, some published in books and a bunch you can read here in my DeviantArt galleries.
I've had my comics published in some excellent anthologies like "Flight" "The Anthology Project" and "Womanthology" and have worked on animation projects for PBS Kids, Cartoon Network, and National Geographic Kids. I also like reading, wandering, cooking and watching and listening to the world around me. And cheesecake... homminahommina....
My first self-published comic "Silly Kingdom", written by my brother Shaggy is available as $0.99 digital PDF download and more info can be found here:
