Hi! I'm Zoe Ranucci

I am the creator behind Good Dharma Design. In my shop you will find fun, whimsical (and sometimes silly) illustrated greeting cards, stickers, bookmarks and more. Mostly of my basset hound character, Dharma, whom my business is named after (read more about her below). I hope to bring a little joy with my creations

Originally from Binghamton, upstate NY, I currently live in Belmont, NC just outside of Charlotte, NC with my husband and two daughters. Operating my studio from my home where I am never short on inspiration… surrounded by my house-full of furry friends… Juno the Blood Hound, Mochi the Doxi,  Fender the cat, and Wasabi the Bearded Dragon!

When not creating for my shop, I am an illustrator and graphic designer specializing in illustration for children's picture and chapter books as well businesses geared towards children. I have been illustrating for the children's market for almost 20 years and thrive at bringing my client's visions to life and infusing my art with joy, diversity, and happiness.

Dharma: one's Life Purpose or 'calling'. What we are destined to give back to the world.

What does Good Dharma mean?

What is 'Good Dharma'? Well... to me, Dharma was my beloved Basset Hound. She was my first 'baby' and was with me for almost 15 years until she passed in June of 2013.

The REAL meaning of Dharma is: one's Life Purpose or 'calling'. It is what we are destined to give back to the world. And so it is, I am here to offer a little joy with my illustration and bring my client's visions to life. Namaste
