🦋 Hi, I’m Marissa —a self-taught watercolor illustrator with a deep love of storytelling, nature, and the idea of home.

My work is filled with tiny details: houses tucked into gardens, birds, winding paths, little shops, unexpected characters, and places that feel as though their stories continue beyond the edge of the page. Much of my art explores home, belonging, community, and habitat, and has grown into Tiny World, an illustrated world I continue to build one watercolor at a time.

I work traditionally in watercolor and pen, often creating intricate compositions with many small stories living together.

Above all, I hope my work feels warm, imaginative, and welcoming.

🌼 Welcome to my Tiny World.
