House Portraits SOLD OUT for 2025! Join my waitlist! ✶
Illustrated homes, shops & a bit of Tassie magic.
From my little coastal studio in Tasmania, I bring the island’s magic to life through whimsical illustrations. My stickers, bookmarks and more, capture the endearing charm of Tasmania. The place I’m lucky to call home.
I also bring my playful style to homes and shops all across Australia, drawing custom building portraits. From childhood houses, family beach shacks, to bustling cafes and pubs, each building portrait captures the stories and memories of the places that you love most.
Art that celebrates connection to place and home.

Hey! I’m Sammy.
Illustrator, beach lover, wife, and mum to one tiny wildling. I call Tasmania’s stunning North West Coast home. Here, the rolling coastlines and charming streets inspired me to draw the buildings and places that shaped my story.
Each drawing held a memory, a feeling, a moment I wanted to hold onto and I soon realised those stories weren’t just mine.
Through Island Home Illustrations, I create whimsical portraits of houses and shopfronts for people across Australia. Whether it’s your first home, a beloved family shack, or the small business you’ve poured your heart into, I help celebrate the places that matter most.
My art sparks smiles, happy tears, and stories you haven’t heard in years. Every piece is made to capture connection, memory, and the feeling of home.
I only take on a few commissions each month, so if your home or shop deserves a little Island Home magic, I’d love to hear from you.
