Hi, I’m Becky Hill, a designer and illustrator based in BC. I’m continually inspired by nature and the outdoors, and my work captures moments and places of beauty.

I love using creativity as a force for environmental and social change. I collaborate with outdoor and climate-conscious brands that share my commitment to protecting ecosystems, including Ecotrust, BC Parks Foundation, The North Face, and Patagonia.

I’m also the founder of Drawn Outdoors, a nature-based art club that brings people together to create- from beaches and forests to scenic hiking trails. When I’m not creating, you’ll find me climbing up a mountain or riding down it, always looking for new inspiration in the natural world.

Carol Mac is an Australian artist and multidisciplinary designer based in Vancouver, guided by compassion, community, and the belief that creativity can inspire positive change.
