About

Hi, I'm Charla!

I'm a surface designer, published illustrator, and creative director with more than a decade of industry experience designing for print and pattern. I graduated magna cum laude from Savannah College of Art and Design, where I studied illustration and earned a B.F.A. and M.A. in Communication Arts.

I have created artwork for magazines, product packaging, floor coverings, fabric, gift wrap, and greeting cards, as well as children's activities and books. I also have experience in art direction and project management. Repeat patterns are my passion!

When I'm not drawing, I enjoy coffee, cuddling with my cats, making jewelry, traveling, and stargazing in my backyard.
