Hey, I'm Natalie.

Hey there! I'm Natalie, a passionate illustrator, artist, designer, art teacher, all-around-creative, color lover, world traveler, wife, mom, expat and believer. I was surrounded by art since I was very young, with many artists, art-educators, and creative entrepreneurs on both sides of my family. When asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I always replied with "an artist." I went on to study studio art in university in the United States and worked in branding and graphic design for many years. When I was pregnant with a difficult high-risk twin pregnancy in 2014, and forced to slow down, I invested in my first digital drawing tablet, which I used a lot while on bed rest. And I fell in love with digital painting! Naturally, I also became incredibly inspired by art and illustration for children, and decided to follow my childhood dream of illustrating children's books.
