My love of design began with the over-the-top, unquestionably 1980’s rainbow wallpaper in my childhood bedroom. It inspired in me a love of color, pattern, and shape that’s only grown over the years and has driven me to create engaging and inspiring designs of my own. I passionately believe in the power of illustration and design to transform spaces, simplify communications, and build relationships.
For more than 10 years I worked in the printed graphics industry, running a print shop that produced marketing and event collateral, large-scale signage, environmental graphics, and more. As a result I thrive working within tight deadlines, and I bring my technical knowledge of finished products to bear in my design work, ensuring that my designs are print-friendly.
When I’m not in the studio, I’m probably outdoors. My family and I have camped our way across the 48 contiguous states and climbed mountains, hiked canyons, rafted rivers, visited presidential wax museums, and snuck into two ivy league colleges...so far.
I warmly welcome new collaborations, licensing opportunities, and commissions from across the globe. If you're interested in working together, I'd love to hear from you. You can complete the form below or email me at: abby@abbyhersey.com
