Rosewood Turtle Creek

Created for Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, this illustrated card set highlights the most storied spaces of the iconic Dallas estate. Originally built in 1925 as the private residence of cotton baron Sheppard King, the mansion was later saved from demolition and transformed into a hotel by Caroline Rose Hunt in 1980, becoming the founding property of the Rosewood brand. I drew on this rich history to guide my illustrations, researching the estate's European influences and architectural treasures — from Spanish cathedral doors to imported Italian marble — to capture its story.

Open booklet of travel brochures or information cards with illustrations and descriptions of a mansion, a fountain, a library, and a bar.

Each card features a hand-drawn rendering of the Mansion's architectural details, from the marble fountain at the entrance to the ornate library and historic bar doors, capturing the property's European influences and timeless Texan charm. Soft pastels, delicate linework, and subtle patterns echo the Mansion's gentle sophistication.

Presented to guests each evening as part of their turndown service every night, the story cards become a keepsake — a small discovery left on the pillow, inviting guests to learn a piece of the Mansion's history each night of their stay. The collection celebrates the artistry, heritage, and quiet grandeur that define Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, with each illustration honoring the craftsmanship woven into every corner of the estate.
