Paulina Cassidy
Paulina Cassidy is a Canadian artist (born January 19, 1970) whose whimsical fantasy art is collected worldwide. Paulina quotes: "the pool of my creativity is blended from all things real, fantastical, emotional, and spiritual, and it draws energy from everything around me. I never know when a new creation wants to be born, so I try to have a sketch book handy when I'm away from the drawing board." Also known as Paulina Stuckey-Cassidy, Paulina has been building a growing customer base worldwide since the debut of her website in 1999, Restless Moon Gallery.

Paulina is best known for her unique array of faeries, witches, and other beings of magic. Several of her pieces were included 'The Art of Faery' (2003) and 'The World of Faery' (2005) by David Riche. The music of Kate Bush, Tori Amos and Bjork inspired several of her early creations which she calls Little Muses. In 1995, many of Paulina's finely-detailed black & white illustrations were published in the collectible Tori Amos songbook 'The Bee Sides'.

Paulina is the author and illustrator of 'Paulina Tarot', a 78-card tarot deck released by US Games in January, 2009. Paulina is currently working on a second tarot deck with US Games.

Born and raised in Ontario, Canada, Paulina and her husband Kevin now reside in Chattanooga, Tennessee. From 2005 to 2007, they lived in the New Orleans area, a city that Paulina still considers home. New Orleans remains to be a major influence on Paulina's work, and was an influence in the creation of the 'Paulina Tarot'.
