  • Wanderlust Patterns: Exotic India Collection

    I dream of traveling to India one day to soak up the colors, landmarks, symbols, and motifs of this culturally rich and diverse country. From the Pink City of Jaipur to the Taj Mahal in Agra, the visual feast of patterns is incredible. Inspired by stories I’ve heard, I created this Exotic India collection to celebrate this beautiful place in the world. If you are interested in licensing my illustrations or patterns in this collection, please contact me for details. For more licensing information, feel free to browse my portfolio.

    Illustration News: Custom Map of Napa Valley for the ACCP Conference

    I was so excited to be commissioned to create a custom map for the Association of Club Catering Professionals a few months back. They held their annual conference in Napa Valley and they wanted a fun way to represent all the locations they would be visiting during the conference. Once I created the map, they had the illustration printed on canvas bags to hand out to all conference attendees. The bag would then be used throughout the conference as the attendees went from event to event, and gathered notes and goodies at each spot. I loved getting the positive feedback from the association that map and bag were well received!…

    Wanderlust Patterns: Bali Om Surface Design and Illustrations

    A yoga retreat in Bali is one of those dream vacations I would love to take some day. I will admit, I’m not that adept at yoga, and have only taken a few classes, but the thought of learning more about the benefits of yoga while practicing in a gorgeous location as Bali sounds blissful. While dreaming of this trip, I created some surface design patterns that capture the essence of this location. A colorful print of yoga positions with iconic Bali scenery such as the rice terraces, a meditative hut and the beautiful Taman Ayun Temple in Mengwi; iconic lotus flowers; meditative mandalas; and a rich tye dies fabric…

  • American Road Trip Puzzle for True South Puzzle (Illustrated by Wanderlust Designer)

    On Location: Road Trips – American Road Trip Puzzle with True South Puzzles

    I’m so happy to announce the release of my latest licensing project – an American Road Trip Puzzle! I had a wonderful time partnering with True South Puzzle Company of Nashville in creating this art work. Obviously, I love a good road trip, so an illustration of all the different sites one might find on a road trip across the US was just up my alley. The puzzle arrived just in time for spring break and my husband and nephew were eager to give it a go! The both reported that building the border of the puzzle proved to be a good challenge and once they each started on the center, they…

I am so proud of all the puzzles I’ve created in I am so proud of all the puzzles I’ve created in the last few years for the fabulous @truesouthpuzzle - I’m realizing I haven’t shared nearly enough of all the fun details that go into creating each of these illustrations. Before I even start illustration I spend many many hours researching the topic. My puzzle designs have taken me to tiny, cool places such as Fancy Gap, Virginia and St Catherine’s Island, Georgia. I’ve researched a crazy number of US landmarks such as the Corn Palace in South Dakota and the Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo Texas. I’ve even discovered one of Alaskans’ favorite drinks is a duck fart. I’m currently wrapping up the design of my 12th (!!) puzzle and can’t wait for the reveal. So stay tuned for many more details and be sure to head to @truesouthpuzzle to pick up one of my designs! #puzzles #puzzleillustrator #illustrator #research #fancygap #cadillacranch #duckfart #cornpalace #stcatherinesisland

Happy 2021 everyone!!!! Here’s a little illustra Happy 2021 everyone!!!! Here’s a little illustrated selfie of me doing what I love. I’ve been doing lots of reflection this past week - I’m ready to shed some of that excess anxiousness (hello, pandemic!?!) that has been consuming too much of my time and get back to doing what I love- teaching art , sharing stories, and creating connections. If 2020 taught me anything it’s that friendships (whether in person or virtual) really are everything!  #illustratedselfie #newyear #goals #friendship #illustrator #artistlife #meettheartist
