Born in a sleepy little town in the hills of Pennsylvania, Jill Howarth always knew she wanted to be an artist. She got her first non-paying job making drawings for her mom's 5th grade classroom bulletin boards. After leaving corporate life to start a family, Jill began freelancing. She lives just west of Boston, with her husband, three teenagers and a crazy, lazy dog! Jill has a passion for hand lettering, illustrating for the children's market and making patterns. As her pinterest will attest, she's inspired by all things mid-century, particularly children's books. She tries to make every job fun with the hopes that her work will put a smile on your face - for Campbell Books, this includes the wonderful Busy Easter and Busy Party.
