WELCOME TO
PAIGE BLAKE ILLUSTRATION
Surface pattern designer & Illustrator
I am a Surface Pattern and Textile Designer and Illustrator. My work is grounded in both illustration and surface pattern design, allowing me to create distinctive and meaningful pieces.
My inspiration is deeply rooted in the ever-changing world around us, with feminism and nature serving as the core of my creative passion. I am particularly drawn to the vibrant interplay of colors and the impact they create.
Through my art, I aspire to make the world a better place—whether by advocating for change through my feminist messages or by creating beauty through nature-inspired designs. My work is a celebration of both the beauty that surrounds us and the power of art to inspire and evoke change.
