Hey, I'm Ashleigh, a self taught watercolour artist who took a surface pattern design course and instantly knew - this is it! I was hooked, and I've been turning my paintings and sketches into repeat patterns ever since.

I specialise in hand painted watercolour surface pattern designs. My designs are sweet, whimsical and often inspired by my children and their magical view of the world.

When I'm not painting and working on my art, you'll find me at home with a coffee hanging out with my husband and our two beautiful children here in the Wairarapa - New Zealand.

We love nature walks, colouring in, puddle jumping, gardening, cooking, and heading to the playground together. We live in a beautiful area full of nature with native birds in our garden, farm animals down the road, and a reserve not far from home.
