The Pool and the Stream

Hi, I’m Becki. I’m 33 years old, and I’m an art director, designer, and illustrator from Brooklyn, New York. I currently live in New Jersey with my partner Daniel and our two cats, George and Olive. I started my design career in the production world designing for events and exhibitions, and later worked in publishing as a magazine designer. I currently work mainly in branding and online experiences. I’m also a classically trained illustrator and was once an accomplished cheesemonger. I co-founded and run a small woman-owned co-op and creative studio called The Bad Collective. I love swimming, single malt scotch, muscle cars, expensive face creams, collecting books and records, traveling, geology, restaurants, professional wrestling, and when dogs look like their owners.

(fighting the fear of a white page)

 

I’ve amassed a big library of books, art, movies, and music that I always turn to when I’m feeling stuck. I’m big on researching, so I tend to assemble a lot of reference materials when starting a project—which helps a lot. I also lean on my creative partners. When we’re working on something together, we try to have several brainstorming sessions where we look through materials and throw ideas around. I’m also a big sketcher and I find that physically putting pen to paper helps turn the gears in my brain. In desperate times, I will smoke weed and stare at the ceiling until I think of something.

(having fun)

 

I worked in the food business for years and a lot of my life still centers around cooking, growing, and eating food. To relax, I love to sip scotch, make elaborate meals, and tend to my gardens. Before COVID, I spent a lot of time in bars and restaurants. Nowadays, I’m mostly hosting distanced but still hedonistic and boozy parties with loads of food in our garden. I just bought a vintage Playboy cocktail and party hosting book from the 60s, and it’s my new bible. Dan and I are also working on some fun projects together: restoring his ‘87 E28, recording an album, and making our own gin with berries from our juniper tree.
