Spring 2025 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper
🌸 Happy Spring 🌸
It’s beginning to bloom here in Atlanta (#ThePollening), so for our Spring Desktop Wallpaper, I wanted to create a lovely floral arrangement to take you all the way through to Summer, with cheerful colors and deep greens :)

📣 A Personal Note + Studio Update 📣
I have loved creating these desktop wallpapers every month since 2018! (That’s 84 wallpapers!! Whewwww!) But the time has come for a bit of a different approach.
As some of you may have seen from my Instagram Post, my husband Daniel and I are expecting a son to join our family in May 2025! We are overjoyed, and I have been spending a lot of time thinking about what my business will look like this coming year. Since my time will be prioritized elsewhere, our Monthly Desktop Wallpapers will evolve into Seasonal Desktop Wallpapers. You can expect a Wallpaper delivered right to your inbox on January 1st, April 1st, July 1st, and October 1st, alongside a Studio Update from me.
While I know many of you enjoy receiving something monthly, I hope you will understand that my priorities will be shifting this year. I really appreciate the years of support for these wallpapers, and if you love them, I did put a few of my favorites into our physical 2025 Wall Calendar, so be sure to check that out. Orders of course are now appreciated double, since we’re thinking about a Baby Budget ;)
Lastly, thank you SO MUCH for your support this year! I’m not exactly sure what 2025 will bring yet, but I am excited for change and evolution! I hope the New Year is kind and gentle to you, and that you find peace and connection in the coming months.

Hey hey, friends! It’s August, and that means Leo Season 😎 ! I’m so excited because it is my birthday month! This August, I will be traveling a bit, hanging out in the AC away from the humidity and mosquitos, and enjoying a nice glass of wine on my bday. I hope you have a wonderful month ahead.

🌞 Happy July 🌞
Hello everyone! I hope you are having a wonderful start to your July, and managing to stay cool wherever you are. This July, we’re taking a roadtrip to Birmingham, eating lots of ice cream, and checking our backyard tomatoes every morning.
For this month’s illustration, I wanted to convey the color palette of summer in sunny yellows, fiery oranges, and warming pink tones. I hope you enjoy it!

🌈 Happy June 🌈
Hello everyone! I am so happy for the Summer to begin in earnest, and am looking forward to longer days, a slower schedule, and savoring being outside (minus mosquitos - they can kick rocks)
For this month’s illustration, I wanted to draw some summery flowers, alongside one of my favorite fruits of the season: strawberries. Unfortunately for my husband and I, out neighborhood thrashers (birds!) have found ours growing in our garden, and have even outsmarted our fake owl. Oh well - hope you enjoy this one!

🌸 Happy March 🌸
This month, I wanted to create an illustration that felt light, and hopeful. Atlanta has been warming up, and little flowers are starting to make their way up through the mud. Mother Nature always reminds us that there is a season to everything – grief, hope, and renewal. I hope you enjoy March’s Desktop Wallpaper.

🍂🌞 Happy September!🌞🍂
I hope you had a wonderful Summer, and are excited for the Fall to begin!
I personally can’t wait for cozy sweaters, crisp leaves and some relief from the Atlanta heat! For this month’s illustration, I wanted to create a feeling of transition from the bright colors of summer into the golden tones of Fall, without going into full Pumpkin Spice mode ;) I hope you like it!
