Hi.

I have 20 years of design & art direction experience at pubs including The Detroit Free Press, The Los Angeles Times, Willamette Week, The Advocate and Portland Monthly.

Illustration clients have included PayPal, eBay, Alaska Airlines, Columbia Sportswear, Nike, The New York Times, McSweeney's, Wall Street Journal, INC, Fast Company, GOOD, Obama for America, Indivisible Oregon, Death Cab for Cutie, Sufjan Stevens, St. Vincent, Band of Horses, 826LA, Creature, North and Pentagram.

I’ve illustrated two children's books, 'Symphony City' (McSweeney’s) and ‘Music Is…’ (Little Simon). 

I love politics and advocacy work. I love emo picture books for lonely, weird kids. I love mathy infographics and psychedelic photoillustration. I love drawing people who don’t look like me. I love musicals. I love a same-day deadline. I love journalism.

I’m clinically Midwestern. I live in Portland with my husband and four beautiful pets. Visit them on Instagram at @amykm75.
