Sparkle While You Steak: A Chicago Gala Collaboration

Last weekend, I had the honor of contributing a piece to the Junior League of Chicago gala silent auction in partnership with Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse and Razny Jewelers.

The package brought together a few of Chicago’s staples: an evening at Gibsons, a gift from Razny, and a framed watercolor of my Luxbar espresso martini illustration.

Inspired by Luxbar, the piece captures that effortless Gold Coast energy, celebratory, polished, and a little indulgent.

Seeing my work displayed as part of the auction, alongside such iconic Chicago names, was incredibly rewarding.

Grateful to be included in an event that brings together art, community, and a great cause.

Where Fashion Meets Art: Veronica Beard Spring 2026

I recently had the opportunity to live sketch at Veronica Beard’s spring collection launch, capturing guests’ looks in real time throughout the event.

This season felt especially rooted in art, with Thomas Lélu’s signature text-based work woven into pieces across the collection, adding a playful, expressive layer.

Bringing live illustration into a space where fashion and art were already intersecting felt like a natural extension of the experience.

Grateful to have been part of it!

From the 900 Vault: Sketching Style

Last weekend, I brought live illustration to 900 North Michigan Shops for their 900 Vault event, a curated sample sale experience featuring Northshore Exchange.

Throughout Friday and Saturday, I created custom illustrated postcards for shoppers, capturing their looks in real time and turning a moment of great style into a keepsake to take home.

It was such a fun way to add a personalized, interactive layer to an already elevated retail experience, something that goes beyond shopping and makes the moment memorable.

I’m so grateful to have been part of the weekend and to collaborate with a space that continues to reimagine in-store experiences.

If you missed it, I’ll be back this May for Fleurs de Villes, can’t wait to do it again.

Galentine's Day Cards for Ab & Flow

For Galentine’s Day, I partnered with Ab & Flow Pilates Studio to create a set of custom illustrated cards designed to complement their studio experience.

The watercolor designs leaned into soft, feminine details with a modern, minimal feel, creating a thoughtful takeaway for guests and adding an artistic touch to the celebration.

I love collaborating with brands that value intentional design and community-driven moments, and this was such a fun way to bring illustration into a wellness space!

West Coast to West Coast: Jenni Kayne in Naples

I spent a sunny afternoon live sketching at a Jenni Kayne event in Naples, Florida — a California-born brand meeting the west coast of Florida at Waterside Shops, just as snowbird season begins.

Throughout the day, I sketched guests as they stopped in to shop and settle into Jenni Kayne’s signature relaxed aesthetic — effortless knits, soft neutrals, and, unexpectedly, a steady stream of King Charles Spaniels (clearly the unplanned stars of the afternoon).

One of the pieces I shared was inspired by a recent Chanel show opening staged in a New York City subway. The sketch nods to model Bhavitha Mandava, who was discovered there by Matthieu Blazy and later went on to open a Chanel Métiers d’Art show in New York — a quiet, full-circle fashion moment. The sweater in the illustration mirrored the Jenni Kayne knit I wore that day, an unintentional detail that tied the moment together.

The afternoon also marked the debut of my family’s annual illustrated Christmas card, a tradition I look forward to sharing each year. Personal, seasonal, and perfectly timed for the start of winter in Naples.

A relaxed, sun-filled start to snowbird season — and a beautiful way to sketch into the holidays.

An Evening at the Art Institute of Chicago

Last Saturday, I had the honor of live-sketching guests at an awards ceremony held at the iconic Art Institute of Chicago.

The evening was black-tie - filled with elegant gowns, sharp tuxedos, and that unique creative energy that fills the museum’s historic halls. My live sketches captured the movement, fashion, and personality of the night, each drawing becoming its own little moment in ink and watercolor.

As I stood beneath the same arches that hold masterpieces from Monet to Matisse, I couldn’t help but feel inspired - channeling a touch of The Met Gala meets The Art Institute.

A huge thank you to the event organizers for inviting me to be part of such a beautiful celebration of art and achievement.

The Scout Guide Naples: Vol. 13 Launch Party

To celebrate the launch of The Scout Guide Naples, Volume 13, I had the honor of live-sketching guests at their annual launch party hosted at The Escalante, a stunning boutique hotel in downtown Naples.

The evening brought together more than 150 local business owners and creatives for a night filled with art, music, and connection - perfectly capturing the spirit of the Naples community. Guests mingled under twinkling lights with cocktails in hand while I illustrated their looks in real time, creating keepsake watercolor sketches as a nod to both style and celebration.

It was such a joy to be part of this event once again and to see Molly E. Fallon Art featured alongside so many talented local businesses - from custom photo booths and floral installations to live entertainment and luxury touches at every turn.

A heartfelt thank-you to The Scout Guide Naples team for including me in such a beautiful evening of creativity and community. I can’t wait to see where Volume 13 takes us next! 💫

Labor Day on Nantucket with Marissa Collections

Over the summer, I had the opportunity to visit Marissa Collection’s gorgeous new location on Nantucket and live sketch right in the heart of the island. I’d been counting down the days since my first trip last year - so returning for one of the biggest weekends of the season (Labor Day!) felt like the perfect full-circle moment.

One of the highlights was reconnecting with my Ferry Godmother - a new friend I met last summer on the ferry from Hyannis to ACK. We bonded immediately when I noticed her sketching on her iPad (artist radar always on). She’s well-known on the island for her fun comics that capture Nantucket life, and she kindly welcomed us to stay with her on famous Orange Street. I even did a little watercolor of her iconic front door!

It was the perfect close to a busy summer: connecting with locals, capturing summery style, and soaking up those final seaside moments. And the creativity didn’t stop there - I also kicked off a postcard collab with Cru, hopefully launching next season just like my Luxbar collection!

Until then, you can catch me in Naples with Marissa Collections as we officially enter snowbird season ✌️🌴

Summer Wedding Art Roundup: From Laurel Valley to the Chicago Yacht Club

Wedding season was in full swing for me (and my sketchbook) this summer. I kicked things off with custom cocktail-menu designs for Bill & Katie at Laurel Valley Country Club. Next up: a save-the-date couple commission for Quincey & Chandler that grew into custom golf-ball illustrations for a fun giveaway on Mackinac Island. I wrapped the season with Jack & Ashlynn - capturing the sailboat where their story began at the Chicago Yacht Club and creating cocktail-menu signage for their reception at the University Club of Chicago.

If you’re planning a wedding and want art woven through the day - from invitations and stationery to signage, favors, and gift portraits - email me or submit an inquiry. I love seeing thoughtful art details bring a celebration to life!

Chicago to Naples: The Scout Guide Journey Continues

In print and out in the world!

I’m honored to have illustrated for The Scout Guide Chicago, Vol. 2 - now available across the city. My watercolor skyline sets the scene for the index page, highlighting local businesses, and I’m excited to have a dedicated feature page showcasing my artwork and services. I also created the illustrated map for the River North Design District, one of my favorite corners of Chicago’s creative scene.

This collaboration has been a dream, and I’m already looking ahead - next week I’ll be in Florida celebrating the launch of The Scout Guide Naples and continuing this incredible partnership!

From Invites to Menus: Custom Artwork for Sammy & Lucas’s Wedding Day

From invitation suites to menus and day-of details, this wedding was a perfect example of how cohesive design can elevate an entire event. For Sammy & Lucas, I created a collection of custom watercolor pieces that reflected their setting and style - timeless, understated, and full of personality.

If you’re planning a celebration and want art woven thoughtfully through every detail, I’d love to collaborate!

Mother's Day with Dior Beauty

Back to back Mother’s Day live sketch events with Dior Beauty! Last weekend, I live sketched customers and makeup artists at Saks Fifth Avenue on Michigan Avenue in Chicago.

Proper Placements for Dana Rebecca Designs

Last night, I hand-painted notebooks at Dana Rebecca Designs’ flagship dinner celebrating International Women’s Day with members of the YPO. The customized notebooks were set on each guest’s seat, complementing the tablescape and florals. These hand-painted notebooks added a personal, one-of-a-kind touch for attendees to takeaway from the event. It is always a pleasure collaborating with the DRD team, be on the lookout for more of my artwork placements with this jewelry line!

Painting the Town Pink with Marissa Collections

Painting the town pink with Marissa Collections! I so greatly enjoyed partnering with one of my all-time favorite boutiques in Florida last week. I had a great time sketching and painting their wonderful fashions live in-store, and even left a few pieces of art to remain on display! Members of the YPO, as well as designers Peter Cohen and Leigh Maxwell were all present at the event, making for a wonderful afternoon. I want to extend a special thank you to Third Street South for also supporting this event. If you missed me and my fashion illustrations this time around, I’ll be popping-up again next at Marissa’s Palm Beach location in February - more details to follow!

Bringing my Talents South with Patina

I am taking my talents South for the winter! I hosted a holiday pop-up and live sketch event with Patina Collection at their Naples location in December. It is always a pleasure doing events with Patina, and I am so excited to share that I now have limited art prints available for sale at their store! Be sure to check them out, just off of Third Street South on 12th Avenue and get your art prints before they’re gone.

Stay tuned for more details coming soon - can’t wait to share more with you!

Snuck My Paintbrushes into Veronica Beard

I snuck my paintbrushes into the Veronica Beard store during their Dana Rebecca trunk show last week! I sketched guests, including members of the Lyon Family Foundation board, as they shopped VB holiday styles and DRD jewels. My art complimented their purchases, gifts for either themselves or loved ones! Thanks to Veronica Beard for having me. I am so excited for more events with VB in the new year!
