Hidden Portfolio Pages

I get my best ideas when I am out in nature, seeing how forms flow into one another.

I love seeing shapes and forms in nature.
My pattern designs reflect the natural world around me.

Most days (& nights), you can find me sketching away, painting, or digitizing my latest pattern designs.

I have always loved sharing what I’ve learned with others. I started this website and blog to share my patterns and ideas and be an inspiration to help inspire you on your creative journey.

Hi, I’m Janet, and I have been making patterns and prints since I was a child.

After 20 years of working a 9-5 job, I decided to turn my pattern passion into a full-time career.

I was fortunate enough to have the love and support of those around me to help me achieve my dreams.

Some of my earliest memories are of weekends cutting out patterns from coloured cardboard with my mother & grandmother.

From me to you

Caffeine!
Coffee is my preferred inspiration drink and has helped me on many late-night drawing and painting sessions.

Drawing from real life
Part of my flowing style comes from capturing things as I see and feel them in real life.

Nature
A quick walk out into the garden or a stroll through local nature reserves is all the inspiration I need to create my pattern designs.

These are the things
that makes me the pattern designer I am.

I find inspiration in
