ABOUT

Every Drawing Begins With an Adventure

iLoveWashington began with a simple idea: celebrate the places you love.

I create hand-drawn artwork inspired by the wild places that make us stop, look around, and feel lucky to be there. Every piece begins with a real adventure. I don’t draw places simply because they’re popular—I visit them, hike them, explore them, and experience them for myself first.

Then I come home and draw.

Inspired by the timeless character of vintage National Park posters, my artwork combines bold lines, vibrant color, and painstaking detail to capture not just what a place looks like, but what it feels like to be there. Each illustration takes approximately 32–70 hours to complete, drawn by hand using an Apple Pencil and countless tiny strokes.

For me, the details matter because the places matter.

I started this business to help people reconnect with nature, celebrate their favorite adventures, and perhaps even inspire them to discover somewhere new. From mountain peaks and waterfalls to ski areas, trails, lakes, and National Parks, every piece is created as a love letter to a real place.

That love of place also shapes how I give back. One special print in my collection directly supports trail preservation through donations, helping protect a landscape that means an incredible amount to me.

I’ve traveled to 29 countries and lived on four continents, but nowhere has captured my heart quite like Cle Elum, Washington. Living here changed the way I saw the outdoors and ultimately inspired the business you see today.

What began as a celebration of Washington continues to grow with every adventure, every drawing, and every new place worth remembering.

Because the best souvenirs shouldn’t just say where you’ve been.

They should remind you why you loved being there.

Protecting Our Trails, One Artwork at a Time

Spending time in nature has always been important to me, and as an artist, I use my work to advocate for the preservation of our outdoor spaces. That’s why I’ve added a donation button on my website—so you can easily support the Washington Trails Association (WTA) in their efforts to maintain and restore trails across our state.

One place especially close to my heart is Twin Falls Lake, a breathtaking yet forgotten gem hidden deep within the Morning Star Natural Resource Conservation Area. Once accessible by a maintained trail, it’s now overgrown, with only bits of search-and-rescue tape to guide the way. I spent five hours lost with my best friend trying to reach it, but when we finally arrived, the sight was worth every step.

To help raise awareness and support its restoration, I created a detailed drawing of Twin Falls Lake. For every print sold, 50% of proceeds will be donated to WTA, helping to protect and maintain the trails we love.

If you cherish the outdoors as much as I do, I encourage you to donate, purchase a print, or share this effort with others. Together, we can help keep these incredible places accessible for future generations.

Twin Falls Lake
Outdoor Relaxation Scene

Dave Sullivan, WA

"Thirty-two years ago, I purchased acreage along the Middle Fork River, where my daughters and I spent countless summers camping. We fell in love with the property because of a massive boulder in the river, lovingly known as “The Swimming Hole,” a place that holds so many cherished memories for our family.

 
Years later, after finally building a home on that same property, I commissioned Stephanie Candish to memorialize that special boulder in a custom piece of artwork. The result is a stunning framed poster that now hangs in our home, capturing both the place and the memories tied to it.
 
Working with Stephanie was such a fun and meaningful experience, and the finished piece turned out even better than I could have imagined. I would love the opportunity to work with her again."
