About

I’ve been sketching for as long as I can remember. Drawing has always been my way of understanding the world — from the shapes of buildings to the rhythm of nature woven through city life. After many years away from the creative spotlight, I’ve returned to drawing with renewed joy and freedom, creating art that is happy and memorable.

Every designablecity piece begins as a hand-painted digital artwork, created on my iPad using Apple Pencil and Procreate. My style is bold, whimsical, and richly saturated with colour, drawing inspiration from nature, landscapes, and architecture, often blending the organic with the built environment. The result is artwork that feels playful, expressive, and full of story.

My illustrations are designed to live with you — as wall art, notebooks, and organic cotton tote bags that bring colour and creativity into everyday moments. I love seeing art move beyond the wall and become part of daily routines, whether that’s a tote carried to the market or a notebook opened for a new idea.

Alongside my artwork, designablecity also features knitted pieces created by a Canadian designer, adding another layer of texture, craftsmanship, and warmth to the collection. These knits reflect the same values as my art: care, creativity, and thoughtful design.

My shop is about celebrating imagination at any age, embracing colour, and finding beauty in both nature and the cities we move through every day. I hope my work brings a little joy, and wonder into your space.

Thank you for being here.
