About

Hello there!

I'm Rebecca, a self-taught surface pattern designer and illustrator with an unyielding passion for color and creativity. Growing up in a dusty gold rush town nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada in Northern California, I was surrounded by inspiration from an early age. One of my dearest friends had a family-owned stationery store, and together, we would walk from school to our parents' businesses, my father being a goldsmith. While my dad's shop intrigued me, it was my friend's stationery store that truly captured my heart.

I vividly recall the enchanting ambiance of the shop—the weathered wood floors, the mesmerizing marker displays, the abundance of paper—and the joy of crafting captivating seasonal window displays. It was in that sweet, little shop that my love for paper took root and really never let go.

The journey of my stationery obsession grew during our honeymoon in Japan. The vibrant art supplies, particularly the mesmerizing washi tape, left a mark on my artistic heart. With newfound inspiration and determination, I returned to Hawai'i, my home at the time, and embarked on a mission to create washi tape with my own unique art.

From that pivotal moment, my journey as a surface pattern designer soared to new heights. Today, my designs grace the shelves of stores all across the nation, including the very store owned by my cherished friend. With over 70 mesmerizing washi tape designs and a wide range of over 170 SKUs, my wholesale line can now be found in over 250 stores across the country, making a colorful impact in the lives of many.

I'm thrilled to share that my artistic goals have also led me to collaborate with renowned companies such as Once Again Home, Phoebe Fabrics, Geometry House, and Jiggy Puzzles. Licensing my artwork has allowed me to reach even greater heights in sharing my creative vision with the world.

After 10 years of product creation, a ton of questions sent to my Inbox, I have created a course called Manufacture: Awesome. In this program, I empower and teach other aspiring artists how to source and manufacture their own products domestically and abroad.

With a mission to take the fear out of manufacturing, one product at a time, I share my knowledge and experience to help fellow creatives turn their ideas into reality. Teaching seriously lights up my heart. Nothing beats the feeling of empowering other humans to create a business of their own with their own custom products.

Embracing a world without limits, I find inspiration in my adventures, from traveling in foreign countries to basking in the wonders of nature, perpetually curious, much like my two amazing children. I now reside in the magical Columbia River Gorge, where I wait for summer to paddle my heart out.

My journey as an artist knows no bounds, fueled by passion, love for color, and the joy of creating In a quiet pocket of time. I invite you to join me on this adventure, where the possibilities are as vast and vibrant as the colors that inspire me.

Welcome to my world of art and imagination—a world where creativity knows no limits.
