... Her designs not only feature some of her favorite fandoms (Doctor Who and Harry Potter) but also her passion for photography." -Monica Duarte, Temple of Geek Chic, TempleofGeek.com

I’m a little bit all over the place, to be honest. I do fan art, photography, typography, digital collages… whatever strikes my fancy. The digital collages with flowers, or as I call them, "Digital Bouquets", are probably my favorite thing to do, though.


HOW IT ALL BEGAN:

It all originated with my photography. I’ve always loved to take pictures and have been told since I was young that I have a natural eye for composition. As I got older people kept telling me that I should sell prints of my work, but we’re all our own worst critics and I thought people were just saying that to be nice. I opened a Society6 shop in November, 2015 and was stunned when people started buying things. My Redbubble shop followed a few months later.

My Digital Bouquets started in September, 2016. I’m not sure what gave me the idea, but one day I started opening up a bunch of my photos of flowers in my editing software and I decided to “cut” them out and arrange them into a kind of bouquet. I had so much fun doing it and it was well received on social media so I made a couple more. Then I got an idea to spice them up by adding Shakespearean insults. After that I started adding Doctor Who quotes, and now I’m also doing Harry Potter themed bouquets.

Inspiration strikes at the most random times and from the most random things. I think that’s why my brand is so eclectic.


WHERE IT'S ALL GOING:

Personally, I’m happy with it just simply being a side hobby, though it wouldn’t be terrible if demand picked up a little and/or more people reached out for commissions. If some day I become super popular and I can turn it into a full time gig, so be it, but for now I’m enjoying creating just for the heck of it.
