Hi, I’m Ash Turner.

I’m an illustrator and artist based in Western North Carolina.

About Me

I'm an illustrator, artist, and educator based in Asheville, North Carolina. Using pen and ink, my work is heavily inspired by late 19th and early 20th centuries ink illustrations, especially those found in children's books.

Previously, I taught in the STEAM (STEM + Art) field in Baltimore, including at Girls Who Code, Code in the Schools, and the Digital Harbor Foundation.

When I'm not making art, you can find me swing dancing, library-hopping, or editing Wikipedia as part of the Women in Red group.

Reach out

I'd love to work together or have my art featured in your shop! If you're interested in wholesale, consignment, or collaboration, please reach out via email at:
