I'm Priyadarshini, the human behind The Happy Post and Anthea Designs. I am an illustrator and pattern designer living in a small town in South India with my husband, two little girls, and six dogs. Though I've always enjoyed painting, I was told that art could never be a reaI career. I ended up pursuing postgraduate degrees in English Literature and Journalism, only to circle back to art years later.​
​
As a kid, I wanted to live in a stationery store :P In India, it is a challenge finding paper goods and accessories that are fun, bright, and cute. Cute everyday things make me happy and remind me that I can treat my inner child without feeling the weight of being an adult.
​
I hope you stay here for as long as your heart desires and find something that makes you happy.

P.S. If you're looking to license my art for your own products, check out my portfolio website or get in touch with my agent Brenda Manley Designs.
