Kim Slate is an artist and animator living in Portland, Oregon. She loves creating sculptures and illustrations depicting mischievous animals, with the goal of inspiring viewers to imagine their own stories about the characters. She studied animation at CalArts, and for the past sixteen years she has been working on animated feature films such as Coraline, Kubo and the Two Strings and Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio. When not making art or animating, she enjoys trail running and traveling with her husband and three-year-old son.
