About

I believe that life is lived in the everyday moments, and those moments should be enjoyed. My passion is to bring beauty and style into everyday life through my work. My signature designs are filled with botanical inspiration and painterly details, where timeless elegance meets on-trend sensibility. 

Growing up in the South I was always drawn to beauty. Since I was a child, I could often be found outside sketching and painting. Nature has been an endless source of comfort and inspiration for me. My time spent in London, Paris, and Milan as a design student profoundly shaped my style and design aesthetic. It was here where I developed an appreciation for the decorative arts, and the power our surroundings have to significantly impact our mindset and quality of life. I adore art history, and most of my work is rooted in historical styles. I enjoy creating designs that have intricate, sophisticated layouts with mathematical structure. I’m influenced by the great designers in history like William Morris, Anna Maria Garthwaite, and William Kilburn. 

I began my career in interior design, and then went on to work as a freelance illustrator. My art was regularly featured in international magazines and has appeared on the CBS sitcom, Two Broke Girls. I’ve had the honor of working with amazing clients in a variety of industries which has given me valuable insight and depth as an artist. Many of the art prints in my shop were first illustrations commissioned by my clients! Always looking for new challenges and ways to grow my skills, I came across a class teaching surface design. I fell in love with the process of creating artwork and repeating patterns that would be placed on products.

Each of my designs starts as a sketch into a pen and ink, watercolor, gouache, or oil painting using either a traditional canvas or my iPad. The motifs are then refined, re-colored, and arranged using Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. My process is grounded in my classical art and design education, and is complemented with my interpretation of current trends and ever-evolving new ideas.
