Oh, how we love Mari Andrew! She’s an amazement, that woman. Her illustrations remind us of The Fugees lyrics “Strumming my pain with his fingers. Telling my whole life with his words” because that’s exactly how Mari Andrew’s Illustrations are – pulling out bits and pieces of every day, and showing that we can live our lives in humor.
Mari Andrew is a writer and illustrator. She’s been a writer forever, but became an illustrator when she was going through a tough time two years ago and needed a new fun form of self-expression. She tried guitar, salsa, surfing, and instructional cooking videos, but drawing is the hobby that really stuck.
Here are a couple of times she’s drawn out our lives in Technicolor:

The time she gave us Vacation tips on a platter of Illustrations.
