Bumble Belly Designs

Bumble Belly Designs Mixed media art and hand printed textiles for the home. I am self taught and love working with color and design.

After a 14 year career as a commercial photographer and the birth of my two children, I started Bumble Belly Designs. My inspiration comes from childhood memories: summers spent sailing on Cape Cod, searching for beach treasures, my mom reading shipwreck stories and going on mermaid hunts on the full moon. Encaustic wax has a depth and luminosity that is unique and it's sculptural qualities add to the endless possibilities it offers.

I’m so full of gratitude this holiday season. Thank you to everyone that has come out to support local artists. I have had so many lovely conversations! And to my Etsy shoppers far and wide, it is such an honor to know my work will be given as gifts in so many homes, in so many places. I humbly thank you.❤️
Happy Holidays xoxo

Pattern play today. Inspired by floor tiles that I saw, I set out to create that pattern and then just started seeing how many other patterns I could come up with from such a simple shape. So much fun!

Happy New Year! I’ve spent the first two weeks layed out with a virus but I’m back in the studio with new ideas. During the late fall I began an online course with and I promptly got behind because the holidays are my craziest time of year.
I am happily back at it and have finally had the time to play. My first block is inspired by our hand cut snowflakes tradition that we hang on our windows every holiday. Those will be a wealth of inspiration going forward.
My second pattern was to challenge myself with a rotational pattern. This was challenging and I really needed to pay attention to the direction on the axis - no daydreaming while printing this one.
I’m addicted and so excited to start to incorporate pattern into my encaustic work.
