K. H. Horst was born in a small town in Southwest Virginia in. From the early days, she had a knack for telling stories. Friends and classmates loved hearing earn tale she would come up with. As an adult, the children in her life have enjoyed giving her ideas for stories and listening to what she would come up with. In her free time, she loves to paint and take the kids out to enjoy nature. She has two cats, Isis and Misha, eight fish, and a hamster.

She has decided to use her own experiences to teach others how to use art
