Annika McFarlaneDesign & Illustration
An extroverted introvert, Annika oscillates between quiet reflection and enthusiastic tomfoolery. She loves a good metaphor and clever line of copy and includes them in her work whenever possible. Beloved instructor Jeff Burgess once described a painting of hers as “quirky yet effective” and this has been her catchphrase ever since.
