About the Author

Stratten Peterson graduated from the University of Central Florida with a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts. Born and raised in Florida, she has a love for using lines and dots to create detailed ink illustrations. Animals have been a great source of inspiration throughout Stratten's life and she is fascinated by the beauty and symbolism that exists in the natural world. It's this beauty that she captures using pen and ink. When not drawing, Stratten loves spending time with her husband and two children, and tending to her ever- growing collection of plants.
