About the Author

Ali Mejia is the co-founder of Eberjey, a brand celebrated for its signature soft pajamas. Born in El Salvador and raised in Miami, Ali always felt a pull toward creativity--but it wasn't until she stepped away from the corporate world to build Eberjey that she realized how much she had been holding back.

Ali had believed achievement would lead to happiness--until, in her early twenties, she woke up and realized she felt deeply unfulfilled. Her soul was craving authenticity, self-expression, and purpose.

That awakening led her to rediscover her creativity, embrace her intuition, and forge a new path. Now, Ali is on a mission to help others unlock their own creative power--so they can see it, trust it, and make something beautiful with it. She lives in Miami with her husband, Carlos, their two daughters, Luna and Amaya, and their dogs, Henry and Toby. The Butterfly Studio is her first book.

Marta Bianchi is a creative and witty soul born and raised in Italy. She has a master's degree in interior design from IED (European Institute of Design). During her program at IED, Marta discovered a deep connection to illustration and its profound ability to portray the stories of women in their everyday lives. Marta creates her illustrations through a variety of mediums, using ink and watercolors as the baseline and incorporating digital tools for commercial and contemporary projects. A recent trip to China inspired her to transform her figures into large-scale paintings using Chinese ink and calligraphy brushes. Traveling is Marta's main source of inspiration. Open and curious, she arrived at her current city of residence, Antwerp, Belgium, and never left. Marta continues to explore her art and evolve with the women she portrays.
