I'm Aerin Rhoades, an artist originally from Indiana and raised in Tennessee. I grew up watching a ton of animated series and was fascinated by the characters and their worlds. From the minute I started drawing, I knew I wanted to bring my characters and stories to life.

I pursued my passion for visual storytelling and earned a B.F.A. in Screenwriting and an M.A. in Sequential Art at Savannah College of Art and Design. The skills and techniques I learned to become an efficient and professional artist motivate me even more to put my stories out into the world.

Currently, I am working with Adventure Ted and Million Little designing characters and writing stories. I also illustrate children's books. In my spare time, I love boogie boarding the waves at Tybee Island, road trips, and collecting seashells!
