Eve is a children's author and artist, living half way up a hill in Wexford, Ireland. With her hands already full with paintbrushes, twins, a stray cat and a dog, a mysterious fortune-teller once told her to pick up a pen and Write! Write! Write! She listened, and now, on the rare occasion where she's not scribbling a story, Eve enjoys painting everything from rather grown up pieces to children's murals.
