Hi- Im Melissa
I know how hard it is to find that one signature pattern—the piece that pulls everything together in a room and makes it unforgettable. In a sea of trendy designs, discovering something truly timeless and curated can feel like a never-ending treasure hunt.
That’s where I come in.
I design wallpaper, textiles, and fine art to help you create spaces that feel storied, intentional, and completely one-of-a-kind.
My work is crafted to help interior designers and homeowners bring warmth and character to the homes they’re curating—whether it’s a second home by the sea or a legacy property filled with heirlooms.
When you use thoughtful, hand-painted patterns that feel rooted in memory and beauty, your work stands out—and so do you.
Let’s collaborate and bring your client’s dream space to life, with designs that become the backdrop to their family’s story.

Do you want your home to be more than just a place to live?
In addition to being an artist, I am the mom of 8 and grandma (Missa) to 4.
I understand how fast life moves and that your home is where your
family's most cherished moments unfold.
That’s why I design painterly coastal pieces that aren’t just art—
they're the backdrop to your family's story.
These conversation pieces set the stage for creating a space where memories are made and passed down through generations.
I help you create a home that tells your unique story, transforming ordinary rooms into extraordinary spaces that reflect your coastal style
and the warmth of family love.
Whether you're looking to capture the essence of coastal living or seeking the perfect piece to complete a design, I'm here to help you craft a home where every day feels like a special occasion.
Your home is the canvas—let’s create something beautiful together.
