ABOUT OUR ARTIST:

Founder of Recluse Studios, Gordon Audet is a self-taught artist who has been so "since he could pick up a pencil." He is "totally pumped" to lend his talents to the dramatic arts with Goodly Creatures. He thanks his wife, saying "this would not be doable without her," and his two children, for their love and support. Instagram: @gordonaudet
