Vivian Steckline is a Minneapolis-based illustrator and designer with a love of visual storytelling. She graduated from Minneapolis College of Art and Design in May 2021. She is currently the in-house designer at Wise Ink Media and and a partner designer with Minnesota Dance Theatre.

Professionally, she specializes in typesetting, website development, brand identity design, marketing collateral, and product design. Artistically, she uses both digital and traditional techniques to create pieces with strong movement, emotive color, and thoughtful visual metaphors.

Her artwork has been featured in Paranoid Tree Press and the Weisman Art Museum’s Art Rental Program. Her foundations in academic research and writing alongside trend forecasting bolster her creative work to best help authors and businesses connect with their audiences. In her work, she endeavors to create a space of inclusion and representation amidst whimsy and play.

When she’s not creating, Vivian enjoys dancing, tai chi, reading, hikes in the Black Hills, and playing board games and TTRPGs with friends.
