Self-portrait by me!
Taylor is an illustrator, maker, and a 2024 Upstream Artist Fellow in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Her illustrations are colorful, thoughtful, and often include "dad jokes." She enjoys working with authors, publishers, and business owners - bringing stories to life with imagery is her specialty. Generally, her favorite projects to work on include: plants, animals, food, nature, human connection, and social change topics.
When she's not illustrating, you can find Taylor in the kitchen cooking or preserving food from her garden. (All of this is documented in her monthly newsletter, House Creature.) She also loves camping and hiking with her husband, Peter, and her dog, Cricket.
