About Amelia
A New Jersey native but often found venturing beyond its shores, I'm a creative soul with a passion for aesthetics and a deep love for the environment. I've made my home on a sailboat, finding inspiration from the sea. Surfing is one of my greatest passions - whether I'm gliding on waves or exploring new horizons, the ocean is where I feel most alive.
My Bachelor’s degree in Marine Science fuels my commitment to preserving our planet, guiding both my work and my lifestyle. I'm dedicated to collaborating with companies and creatives that share my values of environmental stewardship, seeking opportunities to make a positive impact on our world.
Other Creative Pursuits
As an avid seamstress with a deep commitment to sustainability, I find joy in transforming upcycled and repurposed fabrics into functional and beautiful creations. From crafting clothes to surfboard bags, and from curtains to cushions, every stitch is a step towards reducing waste and promoting eco-conscious living. Through my sewing projects, I aim to blend creativity with sustainability, making a positive impact on both the environment and the world of design.
Sewing
Block Printing
Block printing linocut carvings is more than just an art form for me—it's a journey into the world of natural textures and imperfect beauty. I'm drawn to its organic feel, and this aesthetic influence permeates my other creative endeavors. From graphic design to fabric art, block printing inspires me to infuse every piece with authenticity and character.
My creative pursuits extend beyond conventional boundaries. Whether I'm stitching together fabrics or carving linocut blocks to create unique prints, I'm constantly exploring new avenues of expression. Through sewing, block printing, and other artistic endeavors, I strive to blend diverse influences into a cohesive tapestry of creativity.
