About the author
Marie V. Thresher is an artist who has been making Happy Friday Doodles™ every week for over ten years.
What started as a simple "Happy Friday" drawing evolved into an unexpected published art collection spanning across various themes, yearly festivities, pop culture movements, multiple countries, languages, and beyond.
Marie graduated from Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia and works professionally as a 2D/3D animator, designer, and illustrator. Her work has been published in multiple books and broadcasted on national television and streaming services. Not limited to digital media, Marie has created variously sized sculptures, taught painting/printmaking to young adults and children, and spoke as a guest to collegiate level classes.
When she's not involved in an art project, you can find her spinning on the dance floor.
