Leanne Thiessen is a Canadian Illustrator, working in freelance and Children’s Book illustration. She lives on a 7-acre homestead in the Manitoba prairies, where she spends much of her time raising her family, tending to the gardens, growing flowers, and baking sourdough. A mother of four children, her illustrations are often created with Littles running around or drawing right beside her. Her passion for art stems from a very young age, a childhood filled with camping, canoeing, loving and respecting the outdoors – where she draws much of her inspiration from.
