Michael Dexter Design & DexMex
I’ve never known much about my Mexican ancestry, despite growing up in San Diego, California. As a child I have warm memories of my mother and grandmother preparing wonderful homemade Mexican dishes in the kitchen while speaking in Spanish so I wouldn't know what mischief my grandfather was up to. My mother was a creative and talented fine artist who helped nurture my interest in art and a love for animals and nature.
With my lifelong passion and successful career as an artist and graphic designer, starting my Etsy shop in 2011 after retirement made the perfect transition. My fathers name is Dexter of English origin and my mother was from Mexico, so DexMex was born. Over time my eclectic designs have evolved from a strong Spanish influence to a wider and more internationally diverse audience so I've changed my shop name to Michael Dexter Design. I love creating art with the romantic beauty of vintage engravings, mid-century modern design, advertising typography and anything that has a touch of continental flair.
Our number one goal is to create something you will love while providing you with exceptional customer service.
We guarantee your satisfaction.
Thank you for looking at our shop, we hope to help you anyway we can.
