I'm an illustrator and designer who's created artwork for children's publishing, game design, and greeting cards. I love soft pastels and cute stuff! Art prints, cards, and merch at https://linktr.ee/carolinemckayillustration
December is my birthday month, so I made this to commiserate with my fellow holly babies 😂

Batter up! Here’s some girl power for International Women’s Day! Brownie Batter and Pop Fly debuted in 2021, and were punny homage to “A League of Their Own”

I still need to make that Banana Bread Sox logo 😂

Plans are in place for a brand new Star Wars-Strawberry Shortcake mashup for May 4th! In the meantime, I will be re-sharing characters from past years. Lukewarm Cocoa and Baby Spinach made their debut in 2023.

I’m still torn about #fanart, but it makes people so darn happy 😂
I also develop original characters as commissions, and I’m trying to figure out how to complete those faster. #strawberryshortcake #characterdevelopment

This is my first Christmas w/o my mom so I’ve been grief baking 😢 🫠. I felt compelled to make *all* the recipes I’ve been meaning to try, but I don’t recommend doing this if you lack a dishwasher. Making up cookie boxes for neighbors and family has helped my mood a bit ❤️

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 23! It’s my birthday today, so we went to see Wicked! 🧙🏼 Such a visual treat! Here’s my little witch from Inktober 2020. She may have forgotten an ingredient 😄

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 22! This was a holiday card design I did for one of my previous employers. It was a good challenge because I had never tried to create realistic animals in Adobe Illustrator before.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 21! Happy Solstice! My 2009 holiday card design is still one of my favorite soft pastel pieces ❤️

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 20! Old Inktober entry for “blade.” I’ve always loved this passage from the Talmud. Where’s the angel? Offscreen, hovering above the grass? Use your imagination 😊
