Hello, I'm Ashley Stuart.I am a painter, illustrator, and collage artist. My artwork is inspired by the comforts and patterns of nature. Each piece describes my relationship with the focus yet remains relatable to others. I celebrate color, pattern, warmth, and joy throughout my collections. I create from my home studio in Maryland, USA. My work can be found in private collections in the USA, UK, and Spain.
My world has revolved around art since a young age. I studied graphic design and created a long career as an in-house and freelance senior designer, design educator, and entrepreneur. This design background has led to pattern design, where a selection of artworks have the opportunity to become home decor, fabrics, and wallpaper. E X H I B I T I O N S

Gift a CoffeeFeeling a little cheeky? Gift a coffee! The caffeine supports my creative process and, at times, the coffee washes the paint off brushes by accident.
