Backgrounds, buttons, and a little birdy

Backgrounds

I’ve been adding backgrounds to some work I created over the last year, so my portfolio isn’t a bunch of floating characters. Speaking of backgrounds, here’s a bit about mine:

• I’m a self-taught illustrator who makes art for people who love pets.

• I studied journalism in college with a focus on Internet studies, where I took all sorts of fun classes about creating websites and graphic design.

• My pets are my main source of drawing inspiration, amusement, and sometimes frustration.

Buttons

Making buttons is magical because you can take a big idea and squish it into a tiny thing that people stick on their jackets. Learn where my "pin-spiration" began and why I choose to make pinbacks vs. outsourcing fancy enamel pins.

A little birdy

told me sending regular emails to you is a great idea. So I’ll be sending some love to your inbox every few weeks. I’m excited to share my personal work, pets and ramblings with you! If there’s anything extra you’d like to see, just reply to this email and let me know.

That’s it for now! Thank you for being here and being awesome.
