ABOUT Erin Vaughan Illustration

Painter and small business owner. Erin Vaughan Richardson has been running her illustration business for over 10 years. She resides in Southern California, and spends extended time in Portland, Oregon. She sells her nature-inspired illustrations on her Website + Etsy shop, as well as in a number of brick and mortar shops across the U.S. Erin is also selling some of her products in about a dozen REI Co-Ops stores. Erin's deep love of the outdoors translates into her vivid and detailed gouache illustrations. For her, painting is a way of exploring memory and recapturing it through the particular language of her hand. It is also a way of preserving the landscape in painted form; giving opportunities for others to experience everything from regional flora to U.S. National Parks. Her work takes many forms including a variety of paper goods, art prints, calendars, + custom illustrations. Along with selling her printed products, Erin is also available for custom/ freelance projects. She works closely with clients to develop pieces well-tailored to their wishes. Her freelance work has spanned over categories such as custom original paintings, branding, stationary and editorial illustration. Erin works out of her home studio with her giant Anatolian Shepherd, Birdie. When she’s not in the studio, Erin gathers much of her inspiration from time spent with her husband Daniel traveling on the West Coast + PNW, hiking, and cycling/gravel biking.
