The featured artist for the month of October\u00a0is Jessica Roux.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jessica Roux is a Brooklyn based illustrator and designer with a passion for stationery. She is originally from the woodlands of North Carolina, where she grew up surrounded by an abundance of nature. Using subdued colors and rhythmic shapes, she renders flora and fauna with intricate detail reminiscent of old world beauty.<\/p>\n

We asked Jessica some questions…<\/em><\/p>\n

*\u00a0How many folks are involved in the whole design process?<\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s just me! Occasionally my husband will help print and photograph things, but I do all the illustrations, designs and marketing.<\/p>\n

*Where are your headquarters?<\/strong>
\nI\u2019m currently based in Brooklyn, New York. I\u2019ve been here for two years now – time has flown by! I moved here after graduating from SCAD in Savannah, Georgia, and I\u2019m originally from North Carolina.<\/p>\n

* What\u2019s your favorite card that you\u2019ve designed (on Postable)?<\/strong>
\nI really love this birthday card. The subtle colors and delicate details speak to mood I want to create in all my work.<\/p>\n

* Where do you draw your inspiration for your design?<\/strong>
\nAlmost exclusively, my inspiration comes from nature. There are just so many beautiful (and weird) plants and animals that I don\u2019t need to look too far to be inspired!<\/p>\n

* If you had to describe your cards in one word, what would it be?<\/strong>
\nBotanical<\/p>\n

*If you could spend a day with any person (dead or alive) who would it be?<\/strong>
\nThe first person who comes to mind is J. K. Rowling. She\u2019s a really inspirational person, and Harry Potter really shaped my childhood.<\/p>\n

*If you had to paint your house inside and out with the same color, what would it be? Why?<\/strong>
\nThis is one of the greatest questions I\u2019ve ever been asked, and even still, I\u2019m going to be super boring and pick white. I collect a lot of art, taxidermy, and odd objects, and I think white walls really showcase them well. For the exterior, white would work on an old country barn-like house — but probably not too well on my current Brooklyn apartment.<\/p>\n

*What would you choose as your last meal?<\/strong>
\nA whole array of potatoes prepared in different ways. There\u2019d be salt and vinegar chips, truffle french fries, twice baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, potato skins, just potatoes everywhere.<\/p>\n
