Sustainability
As a conservation artist it is very important for me to live a sustainable, eco-friendly lifestyle, and adopt that mindset with my art as well.
I use recycled Bristol paper for most of my paintings, and wooden pieces for my puzzle paintings. Painting on paper also allows me to reduce packaging and shipping costs, helping to cut down on my carbon footprint. In my packaging I use little to no plastic, currently the only plastic used is in the tape, which I will soon be switching over to a more eco-friendly brand once I use up what I have.
For the licensing side of my art business, I will be looking for partners to collaborate with who also share a concern for the environment and sustainable business practices.
Living, and working out of my van has really helped me to lead a very minimalistic and sustainable lifestyle, which I absolutely love!
