Prolific and versatile Chicagoland illustrator, Gail Green, creates delightfully appealing artwork across a wide variety of themes and styles. As the creative mind behind Sweet PETatoes®, her licensed art brand has been featured on an array of products—from craft, pet, and party to textiles and gift.

Gail has been drawing from the moment she was old enough to hold a crayon and began formal art training at the Art Institute of Chicago at just ten years old. A lifelong fascination with color and pattern eventually led her into the world of surface design, where her playful sensibility truly shines.

Passionate about inspiring others, Gail is known for her positive creative energy. Often accompanied by her talking parrot, Ollie, she spends her days hand-painting artwork that she then digitally refines into a wide range of designs and product formats. When she’s not creating, Gail enjoys giving back to her diverse community as a mentor to children of all ages.
