About the author
Iris Compiet is your guide to the Faultlines, a world filled with faeries and creatures from beyond the veil. A traditional artist and illustrator from the Netherlands, Iris has always known exactly what she wanted to do: paint and illustrate fantastical beings and share them with the world.

She has made a name for herself on Kickstarter with several projects, but most noticeably with Faeries of the Faultlines.
