cute cute cute curly girl design
Meet Leigh Standley, the talented artist behind curly girl design. The second I saw her work, I fell in love with it. The sweet sayings, whimsical collages and color palette compliment each other perfectly.
A portion of her artist bio reads, "Leigh’s whimsical and witty work has been in the making for the better part of her twenty-nine years. Born and raised in St. Louis, Leigh began designing in seventh grade where she got poor marks in Math class for doodling.
She went on to attend University of Kansas School of Design and holds a BFA in Visual Communications. Her work has been featured in national design publications and regional art shows and is inspired by her incredible friends and family.
Leigh has lived in Boston for six years and likes it so much she only occasionally wishes it were Paris.
Leigh enjoys traveling, old movies and singing. She can’t live without yoga, her family, Snickers and Lucy the Wonder Dog. She has strong feelings about education, believes in magic and is quite certain that given a cape and a nice tiara, she could save the world."
We carry her magnets online and her line of cards at both stores. She also offers most of her designs in large stretched canvases that are adorned with subtle embellishments.
Oh I just looove her work! And, I’m a curly girl too. hee hee. :) Thanks for the link April!
Had lunch with your Dad and my friend today. Just thought I would let you know (you probably do anyway), that your Dad is very proud of you! As well he should be. He was showing me your web page and I’m very impressed. Keep up the good work.
