In a fast-paced modern world, it is crucial to slow down and reconnect with our environment.
That’s why my work draws on the power of the natural world, and uses it as a lens for introspection. Through the Forager’s Daughter I create heirloom-quality divination tools and accessories that are rich in symbolism and inspired by the mysteries of nature. From tarot and oracle cards, to talismanic jewelry and dreamlike illustrations, each piece is designed to foster a grounded and intuitive lifestyle.
Blending cohesive design with a love of nature to create engaging spiritual tools.
Everything is designed in and shipped from my home-studio, keeping me close to a huge source of inspiration: my childhood home and the parks I explored in my youth. I approach each project with careful consideration of how the imagery, message, and materials will blend together to create a meaningful and immersive experience. All materials and embellishments are meticulously selected to create timeless pieces that will hold up to everyday use, making them a staple in your spiritual practice.
Every design is created by me, with no AI-generated work ever used.
Meet The Arist
Hi, I’m Jess, the creator behind The Forager’s Daughter.
Nature has always been an integral part of my life. Many of my fondest memories are of family camping and hiking trips. I first learned about mushrooms and foraging from my dad, and I learned about flowers and gardening from my mom. It was in these wild spaces that I found a world of empathy and inspiration that sparked a life-long connection to the natural world.
After graduating from college, I found myself feeling creatively stagnant and stuck. One day, my partner suggested that I try illustrating some tarot cards. I had always been drawn to tarot, and my thesis work was heavily influenced by archetypal symbolism. Yet, it never crossed my mind that this could be the right vehicle for my creativity.
Reflecting on my childhood experiences, I set out on a new journey: creating a set of cards that evoked the elements of nature that I loved so much. Bringing the Forager’s Daughter Tarot to life gave me the courage to share my ideas and reignited my passion for artmaking. Through the tarot deck, and my other work since, I’ve had the amazing opportunity to connect with people from all over the world who share a similar interest in the wild spaces that surround us and the mysteries they hold. These pieces are not just a set of cards or printed illustrations. They’re a tribute to the wonders of nature and the curiosity of childhood. They remind us to stay connected to the earth and ourselves, and embrace the journey from feeling lost to discovering one’s true path.
