Bright studied Fine Arts at UC Santa Barbara and Illustration at Cal State Long Beach. Shortly after graduating, she was hired to illustrate backgrounds and animate characters for educational computer games. That launched a fifteen-year, full-time career in computer games.
In recent years, Bright has been fully focused on her career in illustration and has successfully illustrated more than twenty children's books. She makes time to visit elementary schools to read books, followed by lessons in drawing, animation, mural painting and book making.
In her spare time, she tends to an organic vegetable and berry garden, paddles, runs, lifts, hikes and plays volleyball.
“Life experience and a passion to live a life that matters make me a reliable, hard-working, artist. Please reach out if you would like to work together.”
CAREER NOTES:
I've illustrated more than twenty children's books and various book covers. The first book I illustrated, "I Love You All the Time", has sold more than 100,000 copies worldwide. "The Tangle Tower" was listed as a top 20 children's book on Amazon/Kindle. Many of my clients self-publish their books and hire me to illustrate, lay out and prepare their book for publishing. I'm happy to answer any questions.
