I’m a creative illustrator and surface pattern designer with a love for bold color & playful shapes. Inspired by retro charm and everyday joy, I create art that’s designed to make people smile and spark a little magic in their day. 

My previous work as a graphic designer has enabled me the power to follow briefs, meet deadlines & continuously create unique artwork.
 

At home I love to snuggle up with my dog, watch scary movies & draw whenever possible. I live near the mountains and ocean so there is an endless supply of nature to inspire me on the daily.
 

I believe art should be shared and seen in the world. That’s why I am passionate about the idea of licensing my artwork — to collaborate with brands and makers who want to infuse their products with personality and color. I am available for licensing projects, my full portfolio which includes patterns, spot illustrations & collections can be viewed by requesting a link via email me at malissa@mizzystar.com
