About

Hi! I’m Mary Jo — an illustrator from Bolivia with a love for quiet stories, cozy scenes, and nostalgic moments. I hold a BFA in Illustration from Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design, and I specialize in creating work that feels tender, atmospheric, and emotionally rich.

Through color, texture, and detail, I explore themes of memory, imagination, and connection — often drawing from everyday life and childhood wonder. I work across picture books, editorial illustration, and personal storytelling.

When not drawing, I’m likely daydreaming, reading, or planning my next cozy adventure.

If you’d like to collaborate, commission a project, or just say hello, feel free to reach out — I’d love to hear from you.
