Hey there — I’m Demetria, but if you’ve made it this far, we’re probably already on a first-name basis. Or we damn well should be.

Welcome to my little corner of chaos and creativity, where real life meets real art. If you’re here to find original paintings, digital goodies, and merch with soul, you’re in the right place. You’ll find all that plus a whole lot of heart in the navigation menu — including my Printify shop, where the designs live on prints, apparel, and other fun stuff. Oh, and there’s my blog, Because Life — highly irregular, always short, and never boring. Perfect for when you need a quick dose of real talk.

If you’re the type who likes to dive deep (I get it, me too), here’s a little more about the mess and magic behind it all:

I’m a 50-year-old Gen X wife, mom of four grown kids, nana to two wild little boys, and human snack dispenser to three fur babies. I live in a 100+ year old house in a small town, where the floors creak louder than my knees and I’m still dreaming of chickens and a garden that doesn’t judge me for forgetting to water it.

I’m an artist in every sense — painting, writing, creating, designing, building, mending, and making magic out of chaos. If it involves heart, mess, nature, or texture, count me in. I love being outside, talking to plants, and getting lost in the kind of quiet that only happens when the Wi-Fi sucks and the birds are loud.

I’ve also been running a little nonprofit called OC Ministries for about three years — yep, legit 501(c)(3). It started with one mission, but life said “plot twist,” and now it’s still evolving.... We shall see what it becomes.

This is a gathering spot for authentic art, soulful creations, practical tools, and whatever else life and I decide to throw in next — digital, physical, and everything in between.

So what’s this place? It’s a collection of real tools and digital products made for real life — not the Instagram “perfect” version. I create because life is hard, weird, beautiful, and confusing as hell. When you’re standing in the middle of that mess, sometimes you just need a place to start. This is that place: a safe space for the beautifully sensitive, the quietly rebellious, the deeply tired.

And just so we’re clear — nothing here costs a fortune. I believe in fair pricing that respects the work and the energy behind it. No gimmicks, no pressure, just honest value and good vibes. What you see is what you get — soul-first, fluff-free, and made for real life.

Thanks for showing up here. You belong — creaky knees, messy life, broken heart, and all.

Stay fierce, stay kind, and keep being your amazing, perfectly imperfect self.

— Demetria
