In 1991, I attended the California Institute of the Arts, where I studied drama and advanced my interest in art created on the computer. Since then, I was always interested in how companies made computer games, and I think that's what ultimately led me to 3-D design. I started using Commodore 64's when I was eleven or twelve, and by age thirteen, I could do basic programming. My initial interest in digital art came about at a young age. It took me a few years to realize that not all my friends' parents were as creative as mine. One year for my birthday, my parents made me a kid-sized cardboard castle out of refrigerator boxes in our backyard. One of the major advantages of growing up in a family of artists is the support you receive while learning your art form. I have always been very interested in art - it always seemed like a lot of fun. Audrey also illustrates books herself, including BLUE SKY (2012) SILLY SALLY and A DOG NEEDS A BONE.Īs a fifth-generation professional artist, I grew up with art all around me - in the studios of my parents and grandparents. She often collaborates with her husband, Don Wood (IT'S DUFFY TIME THE NAPPING HOUSE KING BIDGOOD'S IN THE BATHTUB MERRY CHRISTMAS, BIG HUNGRY BEAR), and she has created many bestsellers with their son, Bruce (ALPHABET MYSTERY TEN LITTLE FISH). Audrey Wood has been writing award-winning children's books for more than 30 years.
