Hi, I’m Ellen!
I’m a surface pattern designer and illustrator making colorful art to brighten your day. Inspired by nature and my travels, my designs are available for licensing and are perfect for fabric, home decor, greeting cards, apparel or whatever you can imagine! With over 20 years of experience in graphic design and production, I can provide design support as well.
I can’t wait to collaborate and create some beautiful products.

Flowers and vines burst forth giving us spice and variety only nature can provide. This collection features a potpourri of colors, between rich browns contrasted by cool lavender and blues with accents of soft pinks, apricots and creams.
