Oh hello!
I'm Christy - an author and illustrator working from my studio in beautiful Southwestern Ontario, Canada. Surrounded by my garden and the landscape beyond, I find endless inspiration in the quiet rhythms of nature.
My work drifts between naturalist illustration, sophisticated nonsense, and children’s storytelling—each piece a reflection of my deep love for the natural world and its unfolding cycles. Whether I’m capturing the delicate structure of a wildflower or imagining a world where whimsy takes root, my art is grounded in observation, curiosity, and wonder.
For me, art is a way of paying attention—of celebrating the small miracles that surround us every day!
