🍓✨ New Bookmark Design! ✨🐞 I’ve been wanting to do an illustration with strawberries for so long—and this design finally brought that vision to life! I thought it would be fun to pair sweet strawberries, feminine forget-me-nots, and daisies with something a little unexpected… like three quirky little beetles! 🐞🌼 What do ya think? I went for a color palette with pastels but also vibrant deep accents. It’s whimsical, a little weird (in my favorite way), and full of tiny details that make it so fun to look at. 💖 Available soon—perfect for spring reading and a sweet way to collect my artwork in a functional form! 📖 #BookmarkDesign #NatureInspiredArt #WhimsicalIllustration #BookishArt #SpringBookmarks #ArtistOnInstagram

Finding inspiration … We spent time with my family this weekend and went to the aquarium. Rays are fascinating. We met a “tiger ray” and he immediately sent my imagination into overdrive. Stay tuned for another endearingly ugly critter. 😉😉 #ArtInspiration #OceanVibes #NatureInspiredArt #AquariumLife #CreativityFound #UnderTheSea #ArtistOnInstagram #ExploreToCreate #endearinglyugly
