Liz Forester is a self-taught surface designer, illustrator, and lover of pattern. She is inspired by the natural world, vintage illustration, children’s books, folk art, and mid-century design. She enjoys experimenting with diverse subject matter, techniques, and a variety of styles. She delights in creating prints and patterns that run the gamut from sophisticated geometrics to vintage florals to quirky conversationals to fun art for children. Liz resides in the beautiful countryside of northern Maryland where she is surrounded by fields, forests, and mountains. When she’s not designing, she’s spending time with her children and pets or enjoying one of her many hobbies: sewing, knitting, needlepointing, gardening, reading, and hiking.
