NOÉMIE GIONET LANDRY grew up in a small coastal town of New Brunswick, Canada, surrounded by the ocean. Growing up, she was telling everyone she wanted to become either a doctor or a children's book illustrator. Midway through med school, she decided she would do both. She now shares her time between the hospital (where she works as a rheumatologist) and her home studio, where she sketches, draws, and paints surrounded by her wife, two tiny Chihuahuas, and two cats.
