Hi, I’m Anastasiia, aka Stacie Mar.

I grew up in a family of architects, and drawing at the kitchen table was part of everyday life. Watercolor came later, in my thirties, after my son was born. It became the quiet place I kept coming back to.

A surface design course turned that habit into a profession, and I’ve been licensing my work since 2021.

My patterns grow from what I love most: nature, botanicals, vintage textiles, Morris archives, the architecture and interiors I was blessed to see on my travels.

I paint every element by hand in traditional watercolor, or digitally in Procreate using brushes made from my own real marks and textures.

No AI, ever. Each motif carries a human hand, and you can feel it.

After everything I’ve lived through, I made a deliberate choice: to put more beauty, calm and good into the world. That choice runs through every collection I make.

The Softer Corner

I’m also a neurodivergent creative. I work in seasons, not straight lines (and yes, my Spoonflower entries usually go in an hour before the deadline 😅).

So I make gentle tools for creatives like me, and I host spaces where we can create together. You don’t need fixing. You need space, clarity and gentle structure.
