Hey that’s me, Ashley Elander Strandquist! I’m an illustrator and screen printer based in Portland, Oregon. My style is pseudo-realistic and incorporates a lot of detailed line work, limited (but bright!) color palettes, and hand-drawn text. I pull inspiration from everyday life, learning new things, and traveling.
When I’m not drawing drawing, I spend my time on meticulous baking projects, exploring parks with my daughter, and enjoying good coffee with my husband, Evan.
