HELLO
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am a studio artist + graphic designer based in Minneapolis, MN. I'm also the head creative director + interior designer of THE Barlow home, a local foodie, and a firm believer that days above 50 degrees should be spent outside with books, snacks, and preferably a dog. I'm an arranger by nature and my work, home, and style is evidence to that. My art + design tends to be colorful, light, playful, and with a hint of vintage.
In my studio I spend an inappropriate amount of time rifling through old magazines and books (my affinity for 1930-50s was born inside of my wee heart at a wee age).In creating a collage piece, often times the image I'm looking for is already in my head and it's just a matter of hunting for it. Other times I stumble upon a gem that pops out of the page. My process is both instinctual and a playful experiment.
Outside of my studio, in front of the computer, my process is much the same, playful and experimental but my options are more plentiful. I love to create pieces of art on the screen but also helping others express themselves in the practicality of a logo, flyer, or invitation. Check out both of my portfolios, visit my cargo collective site, and contact me if interested in any type of custom piece (or if you need help deciding where to move a couch).
