In Collaboration

Samantha Dion Baker is originally from Philadelphia, where she grew up in a family of artists. From printmaking to graphic design, her academic and professional life has always centered around art and creating. Now a full-time illustrator, artist, and author, her favorite thing to do is wander the city streets and travel with her family, drawing all of the things she does, eats, and sees in the pages of her sketch journal. Samantha lives and works in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband and two sons. She is the author of several books, including Draw Your Day and Draw Your World.
