The Every Tuesday Holiday Gift Guide is here! ❄️
|
With Black Friday upon us, I decided it was time to put together the first ever ✨ Every Tuesday Holiday Gift Guide! ✨ And it contains my very best recommendations from the past 10+ years working as a designer, illustrator and online educator. Inside, you’ll find the categories: technology, watercolor + lettering, crafting, books and a miscellaneous section of personal favorites.
First, the guide only contains products/services I have personally purchased and/or used and had a positive experience with where I would recommend them. That means every.single.thing you find in this guide comes with my genuine recommendation based on real usage. Next, I’ve included tips and extra info about the products throughout the guide. Wondering if you should buy cold press or hot press watercolor paper? That info is in there. Need advice about the process of making stickers? That’s there, too. Whichever new products you’d like to try, you’re getting more than a link to the product; you’re also getting the reason it made the list and what to be aware of when purchasing 💗
There are clickable links throughout the pdf guide – just click or tap on any item and you’ll be brought to its sales page where you can see more info.

When I mentioned the Flower Color Guide book in my How to Find your Art Style vid, I had a few requests for more recs, so I’m here to deliver! These 7 books truly helped me to become a better floral illustrator and I’ve reached for them constantly over the years when I’ve needed inspiration or a good reference photo that didn’t come from Pinterest 🙃 In the vid, I’ve included overviews of each along with what I use them for the most. I also included a bunch of flip throughs, so get ready for...
Happy almost-Spring! With the pollen already teasing our southern noses, I’ve been working on some new floral patterns this past week and wanted to share a helpful tip! As a creative who loves working with textures, transparencies and organic shapes, I tend to create my patterns as raster (or pixel-based) first. This gives me the freedom to create my patterns exactly as I want them without being limited by the more flat-style aesthetic that comes with vectors. There are times when a vector...
