About Leah
Leah is a self-taught surface pattern and textile designer, illustrator, and artist. Her career began in 2008 with a successful Etsy shop which quickly grew to include shops internationally stocking her work and textiles as well as collaborations with brands featuring her surface patterns and illustrations.
She then released her first fabric collection, creating a unique and recognizable voice within the industry. She is known for her earthy modern, playful but sophisticated style. Her strength as both a designer and artist allows her to work across many different mediums including surface pattern, textile, and product design as well as illustration, ceramics, and fine art.
She spent her childhood daydreaming in a small southern town. After living in Austin and Brooklyn, she now lives in Asheville, North Carolina, where she enjoys spending time in nature with her partner and two young daughters. Her heart lives somewhere between the Appalachian Mountains and the high desert of the Trans-Pecos in far west Texas.

Her work has been featured on wallpaper, suitcases, bedding, notebooks, stationery, shoes, wall art, wall murals, curtains, rugs, jewelry, quilts, yoga mats, and so much more.
Each piece in Leah's collection and each product she creates reflects her unique sensibility and soft color palettes. Inspired by a love of nature she has established a recognizable voice that speaks simplicity and beauty with quirky and organic themes.
