Paper

In a California grade school my life as a visual artist began with painting landscapes in pastels for a Girl Scout badge project and drawing horses. I continued to work in a variety of media while growing up and pursuing a non-art career until I realized that my "wiring" is basically that of an artist. I was seeing art in the colors of my science world.

My name is Amy, and I’m the girliest geek you’ll ever meet. I love gaming, Steampunk and Goth stuff, and I also love dressing up and feeling pretty. I started LuvCherie Jewelry to help others like me show off their geek pride without attracting too much attention. My jewelry allows you to wave your geek flag at the office, a black tie party, or even a convention.

I'm Heather, a Hoosier turned Seattleite, a former ad girl turned independent designer. Maida Vale (named after a darling neighborhood I spent time in while studying in London) specializes in modern wedding invitations, birth announcements, social stationery + paper goods at affordable prices.
