ABOUT

Ashley Shea Bowman is an author, illustrator, woodworker and award-winning multidisciplinary artist whose storytelling is deeply rooted in the wild beauty, folklore, and creatures of the Sonoran Desert. Living just outside Marana, Arizona, with her husband, world-renowned luthier Raymond Kraut, and their children, she draws creative inspiration from the desert landscape surrounding their rural home — where coyotes howl, monsoon storms roll across the mountains, and imagination feels very much alive.
