About Me

Breezy grew up in Indiana where she loved to go on nature walks, crafting with her mom and sister, and drawing characters from her imagination fueled by her frequent library visits. Being home-educated gave her time to cultivate her love for art and illustrating stories. She was largely self-taught in drawing along with some help from a couple of mentors along the way.

At age seventeen she opened her Etsy shop and started selling her art prints and note cards, and soon after started working with clients on a variety of illustration jobs and commissioned portraits. Breezy and her sister Emily Rose had a publishing company (Noble Rose Press) producing their historical paper dolls, and also made designs for her family's business Clementine Pattern Co. In 2013 her first children's book, "Audrey Bunny" by Angie Smith with B&H Publishing Group released, followed by "For Such a Time as This" by Angie Smith and several other titles.

Most recently she’s illustrated “A Little More Beautiful: The Story of a Garden” by Sarah Mackenzie (Waxwing Books) and “The King of All Things” by Shay & Catherine Gregorie (Wolfbane Books). She's currently working on new projects and lives in the Franklin, Tennessee area.
