CREATIVE STATEMENT
As an illustrator who specializes in surface pattern design, I’m driven by a passion for creating beautiful, functional items that celebrate the unique qualities of artisans. From wallpapers, home décor, to fabrics, I firmly believe that incorporating nature’s beauty into our surroundings allows us to express ourselves joyfully. I also believe that creating patterns from a place of alignment and joy is key! Therefore, I pour my heart into all of my work, which results in authentic designs that resonate with people, sparking positive emotions and making their spaces feel like an extension of themselves. For me, the two most important qualities of a great pattern illustration are authenticity and emotional connection. A successful pattern should not only be visually captivating but also evoke a sense of excitement and joy. To keep my work fresh and captivating, I’m constantly exploring new styles and ideas, ensuring each pattern I create is an evolving expression of my artistic capabilities.
