As a self-taught artist working from my home studio in Durham, North Carolina, I create surface designs for home textiles, apparel, packaging, fabric, paper products, dishware, giftware, and accessories. 

 

My work tends to be bold, graphic, and colorfully strong. I mostly draw inspiration from simple shapes found in nature, expressive color palettes, and amusing geometrics. I prefer to keep a bit of raw edge to my designs, often by using paper cutouts.

 

Utterly fascinated by the joy everyday design brings to our life experiences, I strive to make designs that add a little daily excitement.   

 

All of my artwork is vector-based, created in Adobe Illustrator.
