BIOGRAPHY
Carla Kessler graduated from elementary school living through her favorite fantasy characters, you know —the ones who were going to save the world—to participating in civil rights protests in high school, until she found the place that truly empowered her—educating the next generation through the gift of music and writing. Also a cellist, gardener, and writer she aspires to impassion those just starting on this same journey. Read how the fanciful creatures and plants of Terracolina empower a young Thomas to make a difference in his real world.

Richard Kessler loved to draw as a child but didn’t take it on as a career. Instead he toggled between music and chemistry in college and music won, ultimately leading to a doctorate and a professorship in piano. When the opportunity to join the tech world arose, he changed course as a systems engineer (keeping music and art by his side) until his retirement. His love of technology and art made the perfect formula for becoming an illustrator. View his journey with watercolor at www.kessleronart.com.

Richard and Carla continue to play music together and enjoy working as a team.
