My name is Brigid Elbert

and I'm passionate about

bringing concepts to life.

I'm a designer, illustrator, and multi-faceted creative with work displayed across the country. To work in situations where I can inspire others and be inspired is my ultimate goal.I graduated from the Kansas City Art Institute in May 2021, where I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with emphasis in illustration.Kansas City's unique culture and growing art scene has kept me nestled in the Midtown-Westport neighborhood since 2017. When I’m not visiting my family in Nebraska, I’m camped out and creating in my cozy studio apartment, overlooking the city with my lovely cat, Mr. Grey.

thanks for dropping by!
