At Slow Coast we’re all about chill vibes and the moments that stick with you, captured in art that feels like home.

Our prints showcase iconic landmarks and the laid-back charm that makes life feel easy.

Inspired by slow mornings, salty air, and sun-soaked days, we bring the feeling of the journey home.

With an artful touch and a love for local spirit, we honour the soul of the communities we cherish, one print at a time.💙

A snowy love letter to the Great White North 🇨🇦

I illustrated this print as an homage to winter, identity, and the conversations around Canada happening right now.   While creating it, it was important to acknowledge that this country’s story didn’t begin in 1867. Indigenous peoples shaped these lands, cultures, and communities long before, and that history deserves to be recognized and respected.

This piece features fully custom hand-drawn typography and the entire process from sketch to final. 👨‍🎨✌️❤️

Soaking in the slow moments 🌞🌲

Been diving into sign painter style hand lettering in Procreate ✍️

As a lefty, handwritten type is no walk in the park, calligraphy was literally built for right-handers.

If you’ve ever caught me lettering, you’ve probably witnessed my wrist doing origami 😂
