Anna Blandford grew up in Gippsland, Victoria, on a large sheep farm. Her passions growing up were climbing trees, drawing and hanging out with her cats.

After years of travel and a few short-lived careers, Anna and her husband, Gareth, created a greeting card and giftware business called Able and Game. Anna’s job now involves trying to create the perfect greeting card, but she prefers to describe it as ‘full-time cat illustration’.

Anna and Gareth live in Melbourne with their two small kids, Clyde and Dougie, and their cat, Bubsy.
