Hillary Moore is a children’s illustrator inspired by the wonder of childhood. Working in watercolor and ink, she loves bringing whimsical characters and dreamy landscapes to life. Her imagery is often accompanied by stories she writes about children (and sometimes animals) who are exploring their worlds, often with a magical twist. She is represented by Gallt Zacker Literary Agency and hopes to have her books published in the future.

Hillary is a graduate of the Scripps College studio art program with experience in sculpture, environmental art, and painting, but her passion for working with youth as a teaching artist also led her to earn a graduate degree in education and to work in the fields of arts education and creative youth development. As a children’s illustrator, Hillary gets to combine her passions and use visual art as a way to celebrate and explore the playful, unexpected mindsets of young people.
