Shay MacMorran
is a portrait artist and illustrator based in Waco, Texas.

Her work is inspired by her love of animals, favorite book characters, childhood nostalgia, and fairy tales. 

​She graduated from Texas State Technical College with a degree in Commercial Art and Advertising in 2003, but continues her education by following and supporting other artists in her community through tutorials and collaboration. 
​
When she isn’t working as a Graphic Designer, Shay is hanging out with her son, Bug, hiking with her dogs: Hunt & Indy, chilling with her cats: Iris & Edgar, reading obscene quantities of books, or creating paintings, sketches, stickers, and other art projects for her home, online shops, and for sale at local markets.
