Annie Ruygt is an illustrator and artist whose creative path has unfolded across disciplines, landscapes, and ways of seeing. She studied illustration at California State University, Fullerton, where she built a foundation in visual storytelling before setting out on a very different chapter—working and traveling as a musician. That period of creative wandering continues to inform her work, grounding it in rhythm, intuition, and a sensitivity to atmosphere.

Eventually, Annie found a home in the tech world as an illustrator, where she developed a practice of translating complex ideas into engaging, character-driven imagery. Alongside her work in tech, she has continued to create more personal, narrative-driven projects, including books and tarot decks such as The Spacious Tarot.

She now lives in a small town in Mendocino County, California, with her husband and two children, where her days are shaped by both family life and creative practice. From this quieter landscape, Annie continues to explore storytelling through images and devlope her spiritual practice through writing and art making.
