I'm an illustrator and surface designer, which means I create art like patterns and illustrations for a variety of products. I license my art to companies like Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Wayfair, just to name a few. My mission as an artist is to make people smile, because we need more joy in the world. I also draw on my years of experience to teach and coach other artists. When I help students discover something new, I feel like I've given back to a community that has inspired me on my own journey.

You can find me online at my Portfolio Website. I'd love to connect on Cara, Instagram and Facebook. Please share your fabulous creations from my classes on social media and tag me - I love seeing your interpretations of the class projects! Please follow me on SkillShare so you can stay up-to-date on my latest classes, and sign up for my newsletter so you don't miss a thing.
