Cookie Redding is an artist, designer, and educator blending studio practice with teaching.


I’ve been making, teaching, and experimenting with art and design for over 20 years, blending studio practice with the classroom and everything in between. My work ranges from mixed media collage and illustration to digital design, teaching resources, and writing about the creative process.

Explore & Experiment

This site is where it all comes together. You’ll find my blog with notes on art, design history, and the everyday mess of creative life. You’ll see what I’m working on in the studio, from collages to stickers to digital downloads. And you’ll get a peek at how I teach design and help other artists and students build their own creative paths.

I believe in keeping things approachable, curious, and real—whether I’m running a class, building a shop, or sharing my thoughts about creativity online. If you’re here to learn, explore, or just see what an art life looks like in practice, you’re in the right place.

From play to process.
