What Inspired You to Make This?
What inspired me to create my art and business really comes from a personal place. After my dad passed away in 2020, I felt a deep pull to connect with others through creativity, offering custom pieces that help people commemorate life and honor their loved ones. Beyond that, my original work is fueled by the joy of creative freedom; I love bringing bursts of color, whimsy, and imagination into people’s lives in a way that feels meaningful and uplifting.
