About Quack & Beans

We are a husband/wife duo who makes play and life fun through illustrations, toys, children’s books, pins, hand-stamped linocut prints, stickers, and more! Our journey started when Tia dreamed of working on a children's book. Instead of waiting for that opportunity, she took it upon herself to create several books that are not just about cats, but also relatable ideas – names, fear, and patience. All of her books are self-published, written, illustrated, designed, and marketed by her. Plus, she is working on a new book about a black lab taking you through a day at the pool, so stay tuned! Chris, or some now know as Ducky, is the idea guy who helps come up with the silly things we produce, designs and builds our event displays and wooden products, and even dabbles in illustration.Read their story
