Tuesday Bassen is an exuberant and bubbly illustrator and designer presently living in Brooklyn after studying at MCAD in Minneapolis and living around the world. Her ‘round the world travels are influences on her work, as well as art nouveau architecture, gas-light era design, and comic books. We love her use of color and how her work maintains a human, hand-drawn feel infused with a hearty dose of a warm heart and a definite sense of humor and quirk.

Recently, Tuesday was named one of GOOD Magazine’s “Top 25 Favorite Female Illustrators” and her clients include Fiat, The New York Times, Studio On Fire, Target, Thinktopia, BUST Magazine, as well as many small businesses. In addition to her own work, she also co-owns Studio Sweet Studio and The City Scout. Her twitter feed is a testament to her good nature and friendliness as she chats with friends and followers, quips about daily life and happily promotes the work of her friends. In recently adopting an FIV+ cat tweeted about by Grace Bonney of design*sponge, she serves as a reminder of how twitter can make a large world and community of creatives feel much smaller.
