Tatyanna Kurucz

About:

Tatyanna is a full-time mom, military spouse and multimedia artist from Vancouver Island, Canada.

From a young age, she has always loved to write and make up stories. It wasn’t uncommon to find her writing and drawing or getting lost in a good book; sometimes well into the wee hours of the morning. Her family always knew her life’s work would revolve around creating new adventures and teaching lessons to future generations through storytelling.

In her free time, she likes to spend it with her family and dreaming up new and creative projects. You will almost always find her covered in paint, clay and other verious art mediums.

After the birth of her son, she decided to follow her long time dream of being a children’s book author. So she dove head first in to learning how to illiterate on a tablet, edit, format and publish her own book. Tatyanna wanted to show her son that dreams can come true if you work hard at them.

Her dreams for the future is to build a small studio behind her home to continue to follow her passion and to become a full-time author and illustrator.

 

Tayanna is based in Courtenay.
