ABOUT

Hi! I'm Tamara.

I make art for products in my signature bold, cozy and painterly art style. I’m inspired by my love of gardening, my bookish ways and homebody tendencies. Some of my favorite subjects are flowers, females, and food. The moment my elementary school art teacher a tootsie roll on the table and asked the class to draw it, something clicked. That drawing still hangs framed in my studio, a fun reminder of where my journey began. My work romanticizes everyday objects while inviting viewers to rediscover childhood wonder, embrace personal growth, and find beauty in the stories that shape who we are.
