Meet Michael LaVoy, artist of ‘Finnian and the Seven Mountains’

Meet the creative team behind “Finnian and the Seven Mountains.” Below is a little bit about Michael LaVoy, the primary artist behind Issue #1 and #2.

“My name is Michael LaVoy and I am a Catholic, freelance artist. My goal is to use the gift that God has given me to glorify him and create quality media for Catholic families.

I have been drawing anything and everything ever since I can remember. As a child, I loved making animation! I was constantly using sticky note pads to make short cartoons and read every book I could find on the subject. I went to college and enrolled in an art degree with the goal of becoming an animator. In 2004, I married my wife, Maria, and dropped out of art school to join the military and start a family. For many years, I had forgotten about my love for art! I probably went a whole decade without even picking up a pencil! After a couple years of (God tugging at me), I decided to pursue art again and started freelancing. Since then, I have been blessed to use this gift again and have been published in several children’s books. I love illustrating for children!

I live in Minnesota with my wife of fifteen years, Maria, and our five children, Weston, Vance, Kolbe, Casey, and Abigail.”
