Meet Tammy Tatum

Author · Illustrator · Fine Artist

I am an author, illustrator, and fine artist creating narrative-driven work for children and the adults who value thoughtful illustration and storytelling.

As an author and illustrator, I create picture books that encourage creativity, emotional awareness, and a love of storytelling, without excess noise or distraction. My stories are crafted for families, classrooms, and libraries, with an emphasis on rereadability and visual storytelling.

As a fine artist, I produce original ink-and-watercolor artworks and limited-edition prints that expand the narrative beyond the book. These pieces are contemplative and story-aware, inviting viewers to linger and imagine what comes next.

Across all formats, storytelling comes first.
