Hi, I’m Jillian Bird!

From First Grade

I’m an illustrator and writer based in the Pacific Northwest, with a love of the medium where words and pictures meet. My background is in traditional illustration, which is where I grew to love the textural and hands-on elements of the creative process. My work surrounds themes of affirming joy, humorous fun, and the natural world. I am also a muralist, with a love of community art and several volunteer murals under my belt.

My childhood infatuation with writing and reading had me scheming up stories and art at my desk instead of solving geometry problems. This landed me my BFA in Illustration from Cornish College of the Arts.

In my free time, I enjoy sewing my own clothes, watching rom-coms, and perusing Wikipedia pages about dad rock.
