A Space for
Creativity and Connection
My inspiration has deepened since I began seeing the world through my daughter’s eyes. There’s something special about drawing ideas from nature and the people I encounter—it brings a quiet joy to my everyday life.
This membership is a reflection of that passion—a space where creativity thrives and inspiration is endless.
Although I'm just getting started, my goal is to foster a community where we can all grow together, sharing our creative journeys and fueling each other's artistic passions. I would love a hand in shaping and growing this space into something truly special, and I'm excited to have you be part of it.
What is ARTFUL?
ARTFUL is more than just a membership—it will be that treasure trove of inspiration, including resources that can help build and trend your pattern designs. Think of ARTFUL as your creative hub for discovering and collecting inspiration while sharing and learning from others in an intimate setting.
Struggling to establish connections and grow relationships with other artists?
ARTFUL is designed to inspire, connect, and help you grow alongside other artists and designers in a smaller, more intimate setting making it easier to grow relationships with fellow artists.
Is the online community a Facebook group?
No, ARTFUL isn't hosted in a Facebook group. Don't get me wrong, social media has been a wonderful way to connect, it can also be distracting and stressful. To provide a more focused and supportive environment, we’re using Circle—a dedicated membership hub designed for open community interaction and easy access to resources. This platform allows us to build a space where creativity can flourish free from the usual social media noise.
What resources are available?
Style guides: featuring colour palettes, mood boards, and insights into upcoming trends. Mock-ups. Templates for logos, collections, and portfolios. Tools to build and present your designs. Inspiring resources. Curated content to spark new ideas and help you find innovative ways to seek inspiration.
What if ARTFUL isn't for me?
You can cancel at any time. However, please note that if you choose to cancel, you will lose the Founding Member price. As long as you’re a member, even if the price increases in the future, you’ll remain locked in at your original rate.
How is this different from other memberships?
ARTFUL focuses more on inspiration, resources, and community interaction. It’s designed for creatives who want ongoing resources, style boards, trend insights, and feedback but in a more intimate setting.
Do I have to be pursuing surface design to benefit from this membership?
Not at all! While ARTFUL is geared toward surface pattern designers, the principles of creativity, inspiration gathering, and community support can benefit anyone in the creative field. If you're an artist, designer, or someone looking for creative growth, you'll find valuable insights and resources in ARTFUL.
