My name is Kurt Loving. I live in Des Moines, Iowa with my two wonderful children, two dogs, two cats, 15 chickens, and a crawdad named Joe Daddy.

 In 2015 I went back to school to study graphic design. The overall goal was to learn some new skills and try out a new industry. In the very first semester I discovered some creative potential that quickly shifted my mind set and put me on a whole new path, Digital Artistry. Combined with my love of story telling and my "big kid" like nature, the only natural thing to do was to create a children's book. There are few things more satisfying then seeing a child smile and knowing they are safe, healthy and thriving within their home and community. I derive much of my inspiration from the crazy idea that all children should be able to experience a little happiness in their life. With that, I hope you and your child find some happiness and enjoyment within the pages of my book "The Centipede & The Slug"
