Hi! I'm Coley, a children's book illustrator living in Portland, OR.

 

I work in traditional and digital media, always seeking a warm, textural, hand-done quality in my art. I find joy in creating silly, memorable characters and cozy, colorful worlds that bring my client's amazing stories to visual life. Some of my favorite subjects to illustrate are winsome animals, forest homes, and children finding delight and imagination in the everyday.

​

​

I am currently seeking representation, and am open to projects!
