Hello
We like to create illustrations & patterns that inspire you in your everyday, Animals and nature; geometrics and colour bring us joy. We want to share that joy with you.
Welcome to our studio space!
Hello, My name is Tara Elizabeth Ritchie.
We are a small art studio in Etobicoke, a suburb just on the edge of the big city of Toronto. I’m a mom to two empowered young teens, living the creative life and my favourite mediums used to be watercolour and ink, but I am currently loving more flat vector style illustrations and art.
We largely work with a hand-drawn sketches to start and then bring the art into digital format for creating our patterns and our motifs and illustrations.
"So impressed with the quality of the cards I ordered and how quickly I received them! I love the designs of all the cards, especially the coffee date card! That is not something you find on the shelves of most card shops!"

“Love these Happy Birthday Cards. The quality is fantastic, the presentation is beautiful and they are great to have on hand for every family/friend birthday that sneaks up on you. Thank you! I will definitely get more!”
