Meet the artist
Hi, I'm Tara
I am a lifelong creative with a love of inspiring others to make, explore, and dream. I have been designing art for products since 2004.
From the sweep of a paintbrush to the hum of a sewing machine, I create art that helps people express their personality and add touches of joy to their everyday life.
