CONNECT:
I'm an illustrator, painter, and muralist. I work primarily with gouache and acrylic paints on a small scale but I love taking on larger projects, such as picture books, window displays, and mural installations. When I'm not in my studio, I can usually be found hiding between bookshelves, drinking far too much coffee, or exploring greenhouses. My favorite garden inhabitants are snails and field mice.
I currently live and work by the sea in Portland, Maine.
All Hands Collective was founded in 2018. We are a collective of illustrators based out of Portland, Maine.
