… and Mrs. Kristine Palmer Illustration & Design is my creative studio. I am currently based in Reno, NV and I love that I am able to utilize my skillset to help small businesses, solopreneurs, and non profits
I am passionate about watercolor, portraits and botanicals. My personal art is often a study of plant magic, lore, and mythology. I love to explore the deeper, spiritual meanings and incorporate symbolism in my work, from the obvious renderings, to the delicate and subtle.
I am naturally attracted to the weird, wild & magical, and this life long obsession permeates many of my creations. I’ve always found myself drawn to the garden, to dig in the earth and cultivate plants & flowers. It has become my sanctuary to work in the soil, to follow the seasons and rhythm of nature. To care for the environment around us, because it also cares for you. And to look towards the skies, the patterns written in the stars. I often share these bits of wisdom, synchronicities & fascinations with my community, through online interaction or in person events. I love doing this & seek to inspire beauty everyday, from the magical to the mundane. Human + Earth connection is truly at the core of everything I do.
When I’m not creating I’m…
Adventuring with my family. Nevada is stunning, raw & beautiful. I love to get out and explore our wilderness. The hot springs are a pretty sweet perk too!
Learning Reiki, I’ve always been intrigued by our capacity to heal our bodies.
Collecting crystals, from my own finds, or from local shops.
Gardening in the warm months, houseplants all year round!
Watching Netflix, like any hot blooded human, I love: YOU, Dark, The Witcher, Reign, The Haunting of Hill House
