Hi there! My name is Lindsay and I am an American Textile and Surface Pattern designer living and working in Medellin, Colombia.

My process blends both digital tools and analog ways of making. My background in drawing, painting and printmaking is often the starting place for a new collection. I find there to be an honest and humble charm in the small imperfections and discoveries that happen when making things by hand.

This portfolio features a selection of works from my three latest collections Common Ground, Buenos Dias, and Eternal Spring. These collections were inspired by the lush, tropical foliage and wildlife I am surrounded by while living in “The City of Eternal Spring”, and the silly everyday occurrences that happen when discovering a new place and culture for the first time.

Enjoy!

Buenos Dias is about the rare quiet that happens just as the first light greets the mountains. In a city that never sleeps this collection is a tribute to the early risers.

Common Ground is about the need to be connected, acts of kindness, and the search for common ground. Headlines such as “Spainards Break Stay- at-Home Orders by Walking Unusual Pets”, “Neighborhoods in Italy Come Together by Singing from Balconies”, and “Communities around the World Give Thanks to Their Service Workers” inspired much of this collection.
