Hello, I'm Shirlee, an illustrator and owner of the stationery brand, Quiet Lines Design, based in Southern California.

In 2018, I received a Masters in Education and a Teaching Credential and I have worked as an elementary art teacher before stepping into the role of being a full-time working artist in January of 2021.

From a very young age, I have made art and loved to create things out of just about anything. However, it wasn't until after college that I started to truly believe in my abilities and that my art could be a viable source of income. In the past five years, I have intentionally developed practices to help me push past my inner critic and start to believe in my abilities. I now sell my products in over 100 shops in the US and Canada, license my card designs, and host "The Tillage Podcast."
