About Solstice Handmade

Based in Asheville, NC

Since 2017, Solstice Handmade has been working with other local artists and small businesses to create unique offerings made with our hand pulled prints. From natural dye artists, to leather workers, to quilters and ceramicists, we invest in our friends and neighbors and believe more can be accomplished together. Whenever we can, we use local help, organic fabrics, natural colors, secondhand garments, and use up every scrap of material.

My illustrations and prints are often inspired by the creepy crawly, the slimy, the overlooked, the in-between stages of growth and decomposition, beginnings and endings. Education and exploration are at the heart of these images, and of our that classes bring together art and science. Through in person workshops and virtual classes, I aim to make art approachable and start conversations about conservation and place.

The murals I create put specific species and systems in the spotlight, hoping to inspire stewardship and curiosity in the world around us.
