Rochelle's Art has been integral to my business.
Rochelle is an incredible artist. Her art has been integral to my business, and I was lucky to find her! Her vision is astounding and she is an absolute wizard with textures. Furthermore, she is amazing to work with — I can babble some random ideas and, POOF! She turns my words into something magical.

I love working with Ro!
Rochelle is a joy to work with and an asset to any creative project. She always brings a delightfully unique perspective and her contribution never fails to elevate the end product. Ro is that rare combination of an inspired artist with a keen understanding of business, always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the project sings.
