WHO ARE WE?

Ricky, Erin & Mary

A family of crafty creatives who are passionate about creating vivid experimental pieces as a means to bond and benefit each other.

Formally trained

Ever since Erin was a teen (and before) she was passionate about art.She would bring her colored pencils or a camera most places if she were to be away from home for more than an hour.She would never miss an opportunity to engage her creativity.That early drive to express herself through art in nearly any form led her to graduate with an Associates in Fine arts from Munson Williams Proctor Institute and then moved on to acquire Art Teacher Certification from SU with a minor in ceramics.It carried over by inspiring her little brother as well...

Creating constantly

Eric ("Ricky") says:"To this day, I recall seeing my sister create works of art across many mediums, ever-evolving.Her commitment to exploring creativity led me on the path of design and photography as hobbies, web design and development as a trade, and now sourcing and collaborating on custom fiber blends & ice-dyed fabric for business."Erin says:"These days, the organic flow of color mixing and feel of natural fibers in my hands is meditative. I don't often leave home without my spinning supplies!"

Service driven, with compassion

Ricky and Erin attest that family is everything.Their mother, Mary, instills in them compassion in many ways and now they want to share the bond they have with you, through the medium of dyed fabrics and apparel for a cause.Help Ricky and Erin ensure Mary's comfortable retirement and contribute to causes that all three find dear to their hearts. A portion of profits is contributed to one of a few main causes each month. Scroll to find out more!
