Hi everyone! Here's a new little Mothman toile that I drew for this week's @spoonflower-social.bsky.social design challenge. I hope you like it! #mothman #cryptids #cryptozoology #toiledejouy
A black and off-white toile de jouy pattern showing three scenes with Mothman: one where he is flying in front of a vintage car, one where he is standing on a TNT bunker, and one where he's perched on the ruins of a concrete structure inspired by the ruins at the West Virginia Ordnance Works in Point Pleasant.

Here's a new carnivorous plant pattern that I finished a bit ago. This one was super fun to draw - I really loved learning about all these creepy little plants 😊 Hope you like it! #patterndesign #botanicalillustration #carnivorousplants
A repeating pattern of carnivorous plants including pitcher plants, Venus flytraps, sundews, butterworts, and bladderworts arranged in an ornate, symmetrical layout. Colored in shades of yellow, green, and red on a nearly black background.

Here's a pattern I finished earlier this evening with little shrimp at a fair 😊 #surfacepattern #shrimp #carnivalrides
A cartoon-style repeating pattern with shrimp at a fair or carnival. The rides, which are shades of gray and blue, include an octopus roller coaster, a haunted ghost ship, a Ferris wheel with clam shells for cars, and a carousel with sea creatures instead of horses. A whimsical gray-and-white Ferris wheel drawn in a cartoon style. It has cars made out of clam shells with little shrimp sitting in them. A close-up detail crop of the pattern showing a cartoon-style concession stand selling sea-themed food, including tentacle twists, barnacle bites, krill cakes, and saltwater taffy. Several small shrimp are walking around the scene, including a small shrimp carrying a stuffed narwhal and a shrimp holding a balloon. A cartoon-style octopus whose arms make up the hills and valleys of a roller coaster. There are three clam shell cars on wheels on top of one of the peaks with three shrimp riding in them.

I've been wanting to do a fantasy design with griffins for a while now, and this is what I came up with. It was a lot of fun to draw - hope you like it! ☺️ Illustrated in pencil on paper. #surfacedesign #fantasyart
A navy blue and white toile-inspired design featuring two griffins facing each other on top of a crumbling stone archway. Trees frame the scene, with a moon and stars above. Through the archway, you can see a unicorn and a distant castle.

Hi everyone! This is a little pattern I finished last year called "Science Labs" - hope you like it! ☺️ Here’s to all the real scientists out there working tirelessly to expand our understanding! #sciencerocks #patterndesign
A hand-illustrated repeating pattern featuring anthropomorphic Labrador retrievers in lab coats engaging in various science activities. The scene includes dogs using an emergency eyewash station, holding test tubes, writing equations on a chalkboard with a planetary model beside them, and sitting at a desk, conducting an experiment with a can of dog food. A hand-illustrated anthropomorphic Labrador retriever drinking out of an emergency eyewash station with his tail wagging. A hand-illustrated anthropomorphic Labrador retriever sitting at a desk conducting an experiment with a can of dog food, a Bunsen burner, and various beakers. A hand-illustrated anthropomorphic Labrador retriever standing in front of a chalkboard next to a planetary model. The ball representing Earth is missing from the model and is in the labrador's mouth. He is pointing at the Drake equation on the chalkboard, and there is a chalk outline of a dog bone appended to the end of the equation.

I spotted a pheasant in a patch of dry grass while I was out enjoying some rare winter sun the other day. It's always such a treat to run across them in the wild - their colors are so beautiful! Anyway, it inspired me to make this new little pattern - hope you like it! 😊 #surfacedesign
A hand-illustrated repeating pattern featuring two pheasants, either facing each other or standing back-to-back with crossed tails. Tan and brown fronds of bent grass and leafy foliage form a symmetrical design around the birds. The background is a dark, muted blue-green.

Hi everyone! I’m a pattern designer from the PNW. My work features a lot of sci-fi and cryptozoology themes, but I also dabble in florals and nature-inspired designs. I’m here for #surfacedesign, art, cats, and anything fun or interesting :) Here are a few of my most recent designs:
A pattern with green snakes and turquoise blue frogs surrounded by pink and blue flowers on a bright blue background. A hand-illustrated pattern with people in red riding jackets riding velociraptors instead of horses. Drawn in the style of a traditional fox hunt design. A cartoon pattern with a cowboy on a seahorse roping a shark. The background has yellow sand and pink coral with teal water. A hand-drawn pattern featuring people skiing down a slope covered with evergreen trees. There are several yeti darting between the trees, leaving footprints behind them.
