Hi! My name is Marjorie.
I am an artist based in Alexandria, VA. Holding both an Associates of Fine Arts in Visual Arts from Northern Virginia Community College. And a Bachelor of Arts in Design Studies (with a minor in Graphic and Media Design) from Marymount University.
My creative journey started off when I was young child, I would put on activity programs on the tv and follow along with the cartoonist as I drew on my giant paper pad with markers. My love for acrylic paint grew immensely in high school.
While in community college, I began to toggle with the idea of having my own business. But was unsure of what I wanted my business to be about, it was always in the back of mind to do something with painting.
After obtaining my undergraduate degree, I began working as an in-house artist at a custom stationery shop where I drew and painted venues, pets, and cocktails for wedding stationery. It was here I learned more about the wedding industry, and the world of live event painting. It was at this point where everything clicked for me, I knew this is what I wanted my business to be in.
On my free time, I love to ride my bicycle. My favorite subject to paint are characters from horror movies!

When I was 12 years old, I was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). A fun fact about lupus is that a large portion of patients are photosensitive. Meaning some patients can be unusually sensitive to the sun. So it is important to limit sun exposure and/or wear sunscreen to prevent flare ups.
Making the best of this restriction, I simply became interested in all things celestial.
In sum, my combined love of painting, drawing, and celestials is what inspired the logo.
