Eliza Kinkz
Eliza Kinkz is a Tejana artist who never stopped viewing the world through the bright colors of her crayons, AND she even ate a few, too! She’s illustrated many hilarious picture books, including Papá’s Magical Water-Jug Clock by Jesús Trejo which received a Pura Belpré Illustration Honor. In 2022, she was the James Marshall Fellow. All her ridiculous scribbles burst straight from her heart, which is overflowing with joy. . . and probably a few crayon pieces. Eliza lives in Austin, Texas, with her family and her one true love, a huge bowl of queso. Mistaco is her author-illustrator debut.
