Alli Koch is a city girl at heart, based in Dallas, Texas. She is the hands and heart behind Alli K Design, which is all she has known since college. With persistence and determination, she has turned her canvas crafts into murals, flower doodles into published books, and hanging out with friends sometimes involves recording her podcast, Breakfast with Sis. Alli discovered that creating, inspiring, and teaching others is what makes her thrive. A typical day for Alli includes going to Chick-fil-A, cuddling with her cats, and hanging out at her local plant nursery.

"As a fellow floral art lover, it's a pleasure to dive into Alli's instruction, as it is an art in and of itself. Her welcoming and sophisticated approach to sharing her passion is palpable and begs to be explored. Florals by Hand is a book that should be on every bookshelf, be it the hobbyist, the professional artist, or simply the art admirer."- Peggy Dean, Author of Two Best-Selling Books: Botanical Line Drawing and The Ultimate Brush Lettering Guide
