A Central New York Illustrator.

Behind her is a sofa with decorative pillows, including one with a cat illustration and another with floral patterns. A small green cactus decoration is next to the sofa.

Kristin Bergene Creative is a small illustration studio that brings together botanicals, folklore, and gentle fantasy. Founded by multidisciplinary designer and storyteller Kristin Bergene, she creates art prints, stationery, and digital goods that celebrate nature, narrative, and imaginative design.

Kristin’s work is inspired by florals, fauna, and fantasy — blending soft botanical details with whimsical creatures and quiet, story-rich worlds. Her illustrations echo the hills and small towns of upstate New York, capturing familiar landscapes, hidden magic, and the wonder found in noticing small details. Each piece invites viewers to slow down, wander a little, and step into a world where the natural and the fantastical meet.

Kristin Bergene Creative is more than a shop — it’s a home for visual storytelling, cozy enchantment, and heartfelt design. Every product is crafted as a keepsake, a tiny portal, and a celebration of place, imagination, and the small moments where life feels a little enchanted.

Where to find my art

Kristin’s illustrations can be found in a handful of cozy Upstate New York shops and across curated online marketplaces. Each space — physical or digital — opens a small portal into her world of nature, story, and quiet enchantment.

She is continually seeking new creative partnerships and happily offers wholesale options for shops and galleries interested in carrying her work.
