Hi, I’m Lilly! An illustrator, designer, and visual development artist based in the Chicago area, currently at Columbia College Chicago. I create work that celebrates the charm in everyday life, turning shared moments and familiar spaces into playful, engaging designs. When I’m not drawing, you can find me in the middle of a movie marathon or casually birdwatching. Available for freelance and internships!
