I want beautiful.
Me: I want to spend my life, with my hands stained in ink or paint, wearing old t-shirts and jeans, rocking out in my studio making art. Is that so much to ask?
Kyle: No
That's beautiful.
Me: Exactly.
I want beautiful.
This was a conversation that I had with my friend Kyle in the beginning of 2011, when I was struggling to LOVE what I do for a living. I created this shop with the goal to be able to let my creativity run free and create products that people like me can enjoy.
I've recently made a full time career change and I'm much happier working at a job that I really enjoy doing. I'd someday like to grow to be able to do this full time but it's not at that point quite yet.
I just believe that life is way too short to spend it unhappy or in an environment that brings you down. Take a chance, make a change and do something that you really love. It will be worth it, I promise.
As a girl who went to art school to follow her dreams without considering the amount of debt it would leave me in. I want to thank you with all of my heart for supporting my dream and making it possible for me to pay the bills and also do what I love.
