HI, I’m MICHELLE ROMO
I’m an illustrator, product designer, and maker of fun things!
I have developed countless characters over the years and have a focus in designing products for children including apparel, accessories, home decor, and toys.
For 20 years I have created products under the name Crowded Teeth and licensed my illustrations to companies all over the world. Some clients include Crate & Barrel, FAO Schwarz, and Loungefly.
I have also published several board books with Abrams Appleseed and Workman Publishing, and have developed two tarot and oracle decks with Union Square & Co. My board book series, Spencer the Cat, was partially developed by Cartoon Network for an animated series.
Additional select clients include: Disney, Sanrio, Hasbro, Spinmaster, Hachette, JapanLA, Poppik, Pals Socks, Scholastic Book Fairs, The Flaming Lips, CAMP, Petit Monkey, Vans and more.
I continue to create my own products in addition to licensing my artwork, and participate in art shows creating one of a kind art pieces of my characters.
I hope that the fun times I put into the world resonate with you!
I currently live in Chicago, IL and am obsessed with my 3 cats - Chu Chu, Deli, and Bimmy. Please reach out using the contact form if you are interested in working together. Thanks!
XO - Michelle
