Production partners

  • Production Shop

    United Kingdom

    This production partner helps me in making various products with my design. It is with their help that makes mugs, buttons and badges possible. All artwork and designs are original to me, but they do the incredible job of printing and putting together the physical pieces.

  • Production Facility

    MO, United States

    I work directly with my cousin and her shop where she produces my ipad cases, ceramic travel mugs, etc. Since I don't have the space or capability to do it myself, I'm grateful to be able to work with her in creating these products!

  • Production Shop

    Clearwater, FL

    They assist in assembling and production of products.

  • Print/Production Shop

    Phoenix, AZ

    They use my designs and imprint them on various products.

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer digital downloads of your artwork?

In efforts to protect my personal paintings and designs (yes, I hand paint all of my designs, and very rarely do I use commercial fonts, most of them are hand painted as well) I do not offer digital downloads of my artwork or the files I personally use to make reproduction of my work. It is all too easy to lose credit of my personal work when digital files are distributed and reproduced.

I devote much time and effort into creating each and every one of my pieces, as each piece is like a piece of me. Please note that ALL of my products sold here are for personal use (or for gifts), so requests for the digital files of my work and the rights to print them will not be granted.

Do you offer discounts for those in full time service? (Ex: Regular Pioneer)

After much love and consideration, I decided to end giving discounts to those in full time service. I really thought about those who wished they could serve as a regular pioneer but did not have the circumstances (such as single parents, those with health issues) and felt bad that they couldn't. I didn't want to exclude them from a small discount and make them feel even less special.

I thought about the countless friends who give their best to Jehovah through their circumstances. That's when I decided that as I continue to release new products, I would release them at lower prices than what I'd normally offer, so that everyone benefits. Win-win!

I rely solely on my income through this shop. I appreciate your continued support!

Why do your items cost more than other JW shops?

In short - all of my designs are completely original - that is, hand painted, illustrated, including most of the lettering. I do not use digital clip-art purchased or downloaded from any other artist, nor do I use most commercial fonts (with the exception of a few).

Most of my lettering is originally painted by hand, scanned using a high resolution scanner and then digitally edited based on the application of use. The same goes for all patterns and illustrations. It's a time consuming process from sketching to final piece - an average design can take between 24-48 hours (collectively, not meaning 1-2 days) to complete.

I do not use any artwork or designs from JW.org - I respect their copyrights, and honestly, prefer to be original.

Custom and personalized orders

I am currently not taking any custom orders or requests due to my schedule. I realized that I need to be modest with my limitations, so I appreciate your understanding.

Can you make a specific item in a different language other than what’s available?

Due to the nature of my work as an illustrator along with the cost of production, I’m limited to what I currently offer in my shop. You may be familiar with the intense work that goes behind an accurate translation, so with that in mind, making products with various languages is a challenge. All of my work is originally hand painted along with the lettering, so it’s a time consuming process having to adjust each illustration to fit the lettering of various languages.
In order to offer reasonable prices for my products, I get my products made in bulk, often in the hundreds. This does limit what I can produce - being that I can only make items (and languages) that are of high demand.

I would like a digital file of a specific design to print on my own or to use on my tablet. Is that possible?

I appreciate that you enjoy my work! As a paper lover, I started my shop in efforts to share my artwork through various paper products that friends all over the world can enjoy. Like any other artist or illustrator, the digital files we use to produce our products are not open for distribution, even if it’s only going to be for personal use (all of my products are only for personal use/gifts). All of my work features my own hand painted illustrations.

Thanks for your understanding.
