Brenda Hickey
Brenda Hickey was born and raised in Prince Edward Island, Canada. Since there was nothing much to do out in the country, she quickly learned to amuse herself (and keep out of trouble) by drawing pictures and creating stories with her sisters. By 3rd grade she'd decided that she'd dedicate her life to comics and art.
As an adult nothing much changed, and she enrolled in the graphic design program at Holland College to further her skills. After graduating, she was taken in by Trapeze animation/Mugisha Ent., and created web graphics and background illustration for animation. On the side, she continued her personal comic, In the Air. Currently, she is picking up freelance work here and there, and is still plugging away on her comic on the side.
