My shop started shortly after I entered the world of graphic design. I love creating anything with a nature and a vintage style. When I started my own website I found it difficult, at that time, to find many vintage styled banners. Thus the desire to learn graphics to be able to create the design style I wanted.
Having an artist background for 25 years, painting with acrylics, graphics was another branch off my artistic endeavors. I love challenges especially anything that involves creating.
My painting designs are a similar style to my graphic art designs. I guess my style was already established.
Painting techniques for backgrounds were aged, distressed, with lots of texture. It made it easier to meld a similar style into the graphic designs.
My husband and I live in the country, with two chow chows, and two horses. We love critters.
Our only child was lost to us in an accident in 2001. Painting and designing graphics has been a great therapy through the years. And I have to not leave out Sunny my adopted Standardbred. He got me up every morning during those difficult times.
Thanks for reading, take care
