Alright y'all... There's something I've gotta share with you. I have recently come in contact with an awesome and inspiring lil lady from Long Island, New York. She has a heart of gold and an amazing, artistic talent that can make you feel like you are in the middle of an endless summer, sitting on the beach while sipping pina colodas. Her name is Tanya Brown (aka Schatzi Brown) and you've gotta check out her work...
She created the sweet background for this blog and has tons of other gorgeous patterns and designs that she has used for iPhone cases, pillow cases, graphic prints, make up cases and so much more.
When I was a teeny wahine, I was pretty obsessed with anything and everything Lisa Frank. Well Tanya's prints kind of bring me back to those days, but I think her art is even COOLER! Not only does she have a talent for awesome graphic design, but she is constantly thinking of ways to look out for the environment and give back to the community. Check out her blog http://schatzibrown.wordpress.com/ and Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/Schatzi Brown. Hopefully, if I play my cards right, she may even collaborate with us here on Beauty and the Beach :)
A HUGE, special thanks for the blog art, Tanya!! Can't wait to see what the future holds for you and all of your amazing ideas! Where there's a will, there's a way, and you undoubtedly have a bright future ahead of you. XOXO
