My name is Anastasia, and I am the freelance illustrator and designer behind Silver Steer Design. I have designed each piece with love from my farm in rural Minnesota. I specialize in creating nuanced, fresh, and oftentimes whimsical surface pattern designs for a variety of applications including home décor, fabric, stationery, gifts, and much more.
I am always actively working on new designs and collections, and I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to connect with you regarding exclusive and non-exclusive licensing, custom work, and potential collaborations. You can connect with me here.
A bit about me; I love kids, animals, and a good Chianti. I have far too many pets and my boots are usually muddy. :) I am passionate about the environment, voting rights, and a stellar cup of coffee. I studied illustration at RISD in Providence, RI, but was drawn back to the Midwest to start my business and to raise a family. Like many of us here, family outshone the frigid winters, and I have stayed.
Through the years, I’ve worn many hats, but have always remained rather firmly immersed in some form of creative expression. I continue to draw inspiration and ideas from the crazy, brilliant, and beautiful moments of my everyday. The boundless beauty found in a walk, the brilliant blue flash of my old peacock, Raja, the warm browns of a horse’s coat, and the twinkling green dart of a dragonfly.
I encourage you to check out my socials, as new work, events, and announcements are most often posted there first.
As always, I am sincerely grateful for your support and interest in my creative endeavors.
It all begins with an idea, let’s make it stand out!
