At home and on our travels …
We capture moments that motivate us to appreciate the things we take for granted, and inspire us to get stuff done so we can build lasting memories.
And then, we turn them into art.
Artwork from our original photography
Our artwork is based on original photographs we take using our mobile phones.
If it's in the photo, it really happened. We merely emphasize the narrative of the moment.
We don't do any editing on our mobile phones, since we can't truly know for sure what we have until we review everything on the big screen.
We use photo editing and painting desktop software to turn each photo into artwork. The style of art depends on the shot we're working with.
On average, it takes around 20 hours to complete a single piece of art.
If the original photo has varying degrees of complexity, we may spend more than 40 hours to get it right.
We then crop, print, matte or prepare (depending on the product), package, and label all of our direct-to-consumer products. This eliminates the need to outsource any part of our process.
This level of control allows us to ensure the quality of our product, since we know from experience how our buyers connect with the art we create.
What exactly are these "products" about which we speak?
Our handcrafted "direct-to-consumer" products include:
- bookmarks
- art cards (blank inside, with envelope)
- spiral-bound notebooks
- picture frame magnets
- spiral-bound calendars
- 5" x 7" matted prints (fits 8" x 10" frame)
- 8.5" x 11" matted prints (fits 11" x 14" frame)
- 11" x 14" matted prints (fits 16" x 20" frame)
- 13" x 19" matted prints (fits 18" x 24" frame)
These products are sold exclusively at in-person events
Selling our handcrafted items in person
Having poured hours of time and tears into the creative process, where in the world do we sell our products?
Check out our Instagram profile to see where you can find us next, in actual living flesh.
Don't do Instagram? No problem. The link still works :-)
Go large with canvas, acrylic, and beyond
The problem with in-person events is that we can't sell everything we want to offer. We also can't offer everything in all sizes.
Our Pictorem shop broadens our range of media to include:
- stretched canvas giclée prints
- premium-polished acrylic prints
- scratch-resistant wood prints
- classic, contemporary, ornate, and rustic custom-framed prints
- canvas, poster, and matte paper rolled prints
Prints extend to 72" x 49" in size. That's waaaay bigger than our largest handcrafted matted print.
We even offer high-gloss jigsaw puzzles.
Our artwork on shirts, bags, hats, mugs, and more …
Looking for something that doesn't require nails, a wall, or a shelf?
Our Redbubble shop takes our artwork around the home and into the streets with items that include:
- mugs, coasters
- bags, hats, caps
- mobile phone wallets and cases
- clocks, mouse pads, desk mats, laptop skins
- masks, scarves, t-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, tank tops, dresses
- pet blankets, mats, bandanas
- bath mats, shower curtains
- throw blankets and pillows, comforters, duvet covers
… and lots more.
"Our work is never truly done"
We're exceptionally proud of our photography, the artwork we create, and the products we offer.
Our goal is to release new projects at a steady pace.
This means our work is never truly done until the universe decides otherwise.
The positive reactions, responses, and feedback we get from people inspire us to keep going.
It's on us to make sure that ball stays rolling :-)
