Mirna Stubbs is an illustrator and Senior Artist at Hallmark Cards whose vibrant work combines decorative pattern, expressive color, and storytelling. Born in Bosnia and shaped by experiences of migration and cultural transition, Stubbs has developed a distinctive visual language inspired by nature, travel, culture, and everyday life. Working primarily in traditional media such as gouache, she creates illustrations rich in color, texture, and meaning. Alongside her commercial work, Stubbs maintains a personal art practice focused on authentic, human-centered visual narratives that celebrate connection, memory, and place.
