Hello,

As a designer and natural color maker living in the Pacific Northwest, color is fundamental to my day-to-day. I’m awe-inspired by the color found in nature all around us…come explore it with me.

Be curious.

Local.
Seasonal.
All around you.

Natural color connects us to a community unlike anything else. The land, place, season, people, history…. Throughout time there has always been color; and before modern technologies it was derived from natural resources. Step away from the digital realm and immerse yourself in nature to experience color as those did before us.

You have likely collected sources of color without knowing it. Have you ever collected rocks at the beach, flowers on a hike, or noticed the native landscape in a place your visiting? Just wait until you unlock the world of natural color. Those rocks will make paint lasting far beyond you. The flowers just may make beautiful impressions on textiles. And the local plants could produce dye that is far more than one color based upon season and how you prepare it. Let’s see what we can find together!
