  • The Textures of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico by Wanderlust Designer

    Textures+Place: Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

    It was a humid day, large, puffy white clouds dotted the sky signaling an impending rain shower at some point in our afternoon. We arrived in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico with a bus load of tourists, but quickly disappeared into the cobblestone streets to discover this colonial Caribbean city on our own. The streets seemed quite empty to our surprise (and delight) for our mid-morning visit. Except for a few shop keepers and locals, we had the sites almost to ourselves. Little did we know, that once the cruise ships arrived, this solitude would change drastically. We dutifully wandered in and out of a few churches, but mainly stayed…

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
