Hey, I'm Angela!

My Story

Just a maritime girl from the Atlantic Canadian coast. A mom, artist, and photographer, who's always got something creative up her sleeve.

Totally into: chocolate, pretty spaces, and anything near a sandy beach, not to mention wearing my thoughts on my face since 1982.

I have over 20 years (yikes, please don't do the math) of digital art experience. Even graduated with a degree of photography in 2004.

My obsession with all things art began when I was just little. I was the sick girl, with bad lungs, who couldn't do many activities that were athletic or 'outdoorsy'. So I created my own worlds full of art and magic. Always tried to add sparkle and style everywhere I went.

Remember what I said about wearing my thoughts on my face, well I still do that! And my mom would probably still take the photo.

And little Angela

In 2015, with a toddler in tow, I opened my first shop, Playful Pixie Studio. It's still going strong with over 5000 items sold, and 400+ 5 star reviews. I'm pretty proud of my first baby that has a lifetime rating on Etsy of 4.8.

Over the years, I've learnt to do as much as I can! What I didn't learn in school (all those moons ago), I've picked up and obsessed over since. From Photoshop, to Canva, to Corjl, to Affinity Photo, and even actual paint, I do anything that brings that sparkle of art to as many people as I can.

It's a wild ride!
