I am an illustrator, painter and designer of things. My work is inspired by my love of cats and all things cute.

Born and raised in Western Canada and schooled in the arts in Ontario, I have recently returned to my Prairie roots. I live with my husband, our three kids and three rescue kitties in sunny Saskatoon.

As a little girl, I dreamed of selling my own stationery and gift product line. I never imagined that it would revolve mostly around cats, having been a dog lover growing up. It was my husband, then boyfriend, who turned me on to them, and I have been cat crazy ever since.

My small business was born in 2004 after I was laid off from my first "real" job after art college. I decided to adopt my first cat, Suki, a black and white "tuxedo" from a local shelter. She became my main muse for the next 19 years - finding her way onto greeting cards, buttons, magnets, clothing, bags and other stationery items - and still inspires me to this day.

Cats have been infiltrating my art and creations for over two decades now!
