Faythe Stone is a New York City based illustrator + designer. She graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology with a BFA in Illustration, minoring in both Art History and Color Studies. Trained as a fine artist and illustrator, she works digitally and in traditional media like gouache and cut paper. Faythe has since been exploring the various fields of design, working in-house as a Packaging Designer and more recently at an agency as a Visual Designer. Continuously trying to broaden her skill set, she has also expanded her knowledge into Web Design.Whenever she can, Faythe loves to incorporate hand-lettering into her art. Her work tends to fill the composition with bold colors and shapes. Exploring different textures and patterns in her art, Faythe makes simple shapes complex and visually interesting.

When she’s not creating, she can be found making her famous banana bread, shooting 35mm, or watching mystery thrillers & then staying up at night cuddling her cat, Frankie, because of said mystery thrillers. Occasionally, she sketches when traveling and sometimes makes comics about ghosts.
