I grew up surrounded by artists, my grandfather was an illustrator and my mom an interior designer. I lived with a paintbrush or pencil in hand and went through one too many coloring books as a kid. I received my BFA in fashion design and spent my first few years out of school hustling through NYC working as a designer for multiple womenswear brands. I spent my evenings and weekends painting and exploring watercolor and before I knew it, Painted By Pippa, a whimsical art print shop was born.

I currently spend my days chasing after our two toddlers, Henry & lily, and our pup Sammy while sneaking in as many paint sessions as I can during nap time.
