Hello I’m Anna

Through Draw And Wander, I design patterns that bring joy into everyday routines — from planners and notebooks to giftable pieces and home décor — helping brands create products that feel personal, optimistic, and full of story.

Let me tell you more:

I’m the surface pattern designer and illustrator behind Draw And Wander. Since childhood, creativity has been my way of finding calm. I used to invent imaginary worlds and bring them to life on paper, while dreaming of seeing the real one with its landscapes, colors, and cultures.

Over the years, I’ve traveled to many of the places I once imagined. And travel continues to shape how I design: from colors in markets and patterns in tiles to the flora and fauna that define a place. It’s the small details that stay with me, and surface pattern design allows me to turn them into something lasting.

Today, I create cheerful, travel-inspired surface pattern collections for the stationery, home décor, and novelty gifting markets. My work combines playful and trendy motifs with cohesive, licensing-ready pattern systems designed to translate seamlessly across product categories. Each collection is thoughtfully developed as a complete story, with hero prints, supporting patterns, and versatile colorways.

Working digitally in Procreate allows me to explore fresh, trend-aware palettes while maintaining subtle texture and warmth. I design artwork that feels joyful and human, yet commercially considered and ready for product.
