After growing up in the Pacific Northwest, freelance illustrator Rebekka Dunlap now lives and works in Brooklyn, her vivid work featuring in publications from The New York Times to Lucky Peach and apps and online content like TinyBop and Frederator Studios. There is a charm and honesty to her illustration style, with Rebekka currently working on a Feminist video game with Nina Freeman and a collection of comics that will be published by Youth In Decline in 2015.
