About

Delaware-based creative, Patti Bishop is in the pursuit of happiness.

She has been creating, laughing, and loving while honing her skills most of her life. Growing up on the family vegetable farm near the beach shaped her love of farmhouse décor, florals, and all things nautical.

From illustrating a bit of her family's story, to the long nights fussing with the Adobe Creative Suite, to the countless watercolor trials she has thrown away...it all makes her happy.

Originally an award-winning graphic designer, Patti blended her design skills with her over 20+ years of teaching experience and art-making to bring about the perfect blend of art, passion, and professionalism.

Patti use ARCHES cold press watercolor blocks, Daniel Smith Extrafine Watercolors™, and the Adobe Creative Suite when creating her illustrations.

She resides in Smyrna, Delaware with her husband Charlie, son Brandon, and a sweet, little, fur-ball-of-a-dog, named Gracie. They all make her happy. :)

Stop by and say hello!
